Chapter 241 Challenge I saw that this person was wearing a purple dragon robe, wearing a flat-topped purple gold view, and the whole person was sitting on the dragon chair, not angry and arrogant.

Wu Xuan Shenhou said loudly: "You Aiqing don't need to be polite. ”

After that, Wuxuan Shenhou's gaze turned to Yang Tong's body, and he said heartily: "Presumably this is His Royal Highness Yang Tong, right? ”

It is true that Wu Xuan Shenhou is a Shenhou, but he does not have too strong backers behind him, and in the face of a core genius like Yang Tong, who was born in the Mercenary Guild, he must be honored as "Your Highness" in the entire human race!

Compared with the many royal palaces of the Wuxuan Empire, Yang Tong's current identity is the real "His Highness".

"Shenhou is serious, Yang has just arrived, and he still needs a lot of care from Lord Shenhou. Yang Tong replied politely, this kind of entertainment was originally called you giving me face, I will give you face, you praise me, I praise you.

"Hahaha...... Okay, His Royal Highness Yang Tong is quick to speak, everyone Aiqing, let's toast His Royal Highness Yang Tong with a cup. Wu Xuan Shenhou smiled, and as he spoke, he raised his wine glass and saluted Yang Tongyao.

"Lord Shenhou is really distressed, everyone, please take care of me, Yang will do it first as a respect. Yang Tong replied boldly and politely.

"We salute His Royal Highness Yang Tong. Everyone raised their glasses in unison and said, they are not stupid, they didn't understand Yang Tong's status too well before, but now looking at the reaction and words and deeds of the lord of the country, it is obvious that this young man's identity and status are far from being as simple as an ordinary mercenary guild leader.

The crowd even increased their desire to make friends.

The banquet began, the beautiful music sounded, and the beautiful dancing girls came to the center of the venue and danced a delightful dance, and everyone from all walks of life enjoyed it.

Yang Tong's location was quite close to the patriarchs of the five major families. While enjoying the singing and dancing, several masters were also chatting with Yang Tong enthusiastically, and under the superb communication skills of several masters, everyone also chatted together.

At the same table with Yang Tong, there were also the three vice presidents of the Mercenary Guild, who also came as escorts. After all, these three vice presidents are also demigod-level powerhouses, and their status is not weak, plus they have forces like the Mercenary Guild behind them as backers, and they are definitely among the best figures in the upper echelons of the empire.

In the past, at a banquet like this, they would definitely be the host and guest, but now, because of Yang Tong's existence, they can only be willing to accompany the guests, but these three are not dissatisfied at all, but are very happy to do so-

Don't look at the three of them, they are still demigods and powerhouses, and the forces behind them are even more behemoths, but their status in the mercenary guild is not high, demigods are extremely noble in the mortal empire, and in the mortal continent and star field, any demigod family is extremely prominent, and can enjoy infinite wealth.

But compared to the entire human civilization, demigods are nothing at all, only true gods have a certain status, and the greater the potential, the higher the status.

So the three of them still need to tie up with Yang Tong, and this escort is extremely happy.

The atmosphere of the whole banquet was quite harmonious and festive.

Just as the program was in between, a young man in a noble robe walked out, saluted to the Martial Xuan Shenhou, and said: "Tell the Lord of the Nation, President Yang is so young to be qualified for the position of the President of the Imperial Mercenary Guild, he is really a natural genius, I heard that President Yang is a super genius who was selected to go to the Origin Continent many years ago, and I want to ask President Yang for a lesson or two, and it is clear that there is a gap between President Yang and President Yang." ”

The Wuxuan Empire, or all countries are extremely martial, and it is quite common to challenge and compete like this, but there seems to be something wrong with today's occasion.

This young man who challenged turned out to be a ninth-level monk in the Sacred Domain, under the five most powerful families in the Wuxuan Empire, there were also some second-level families, ninth-level monks in the Sacred Domain, and in the weaker second-level families, they were also at the level of the head of the family.

"Who is this person?" Yang Tong asked the old man in the mirror.

"This person is Sima Lan, the young head of the Sima family, known as the first genius of the empire, he is only more than five thousand years old, and he has already cultivated to the ninth level of the Holy Domain, and the possibility of being promoted to a demigod is very great. And the head of the Sima family is the imperial servant, and in the Wuxuan Empire, it can be regarded as a family with a long heritage. ”

Yang Tong pursed his lips, more than five thousand years old can be called a genius, this genius is too worthless, Yang Tong has lived with a large number of geniuses in the god realm for three hundred years, in his eyes, the definition of genius must at least master one or two perfect laws of mystery, and the age must not be greater than a thousand years old.

Yang Tong is only in his early four hundreds this year, and his mana cultivation is at the peak of the ninth level of the Holy Domain, and he is the first to grasp the law of wood, and this kind of achievement is definitely the first among the geniuses of this year.

However, this is also because Yang Tong's knowledge is a little weaker or that his level of contact is higher, you must know that in the Wuxuan Empire, the cultivation of the ninth level of the Holy Domain can definitely be called the Dao Ancestor and dominate the side. A family or monk who owns the ninth level of the Holy Realm can be inherited for thousands of years, and the scenery is infinite.

However, the vast majority of cultivators at the ninth level of the Sacred Domain are more than 10,000 years old, and being able to cultivate to the ninth level of the Sacred Domain at the age of more than 5,000 years old can indeed be called geniuses.

At least in the Wuxuan Empire, Sima Lan was the youngest of the ninth-level cultivators in the Holy Domain. This time, the head of the Sima family had something to do, he was not in the national capital, and he couldn't rush back in a short time, so he had to ask Sima Lan to attend this banquet on his behalf.

"Sima Qing's family, today is a festive day, it's not appropriate to use swords and guns, right?" said Wu Xuan Shenhou with a little hesitation.

"Returning to the country, the empire is prosperous, and there have been challenges and competitions in the previous imperial celebrations. Weichen has admired Yang for a long time, and on such an occasion, it also has the meaning of helping. Sima Lan seems to be unable to stop until he achieves his goal.

At this time, no one stood up against it, and no one stood up to agree.

Many forces want to take advantage of this opportunity to touch the reality between this upstart of the empire and the genius of civilization Yang Tong, especially Yang Tong's reality and reality.

Wu Xuan Shenhou is not easy to say, there is also a precedent for this kind of celebration challenge, and the entire empire attaches great importance to and respects this kind of challenge in public.

Wu Xuan Shenhou looked at Yang Tong and said, "I don't know what President Yang wants?"

"Well, since Brother Sima insists on doing so, then Yang will naturally accompany him. Yang Tong didn't think about it for long, in this case, could he still refuse? If he refused, his face and the face of the Mercenary Guild would be thrown to his grandmother's house. Will he still be able to gain a foothold in the Wuxuan Empire in the future?

To put it bluntly, this is a challenge that must be done.

"Okay, in that case, set up the royal martial arts platform!" Wu Xuan Shenhou also simply moved the banquet to the martial arts platform. This royal arena also has a long history, and it is precisely to meet the challenges of this occasion.

The Royal Arena was a symbol of honor and courage, and was a sacred place in the eyes of the Imperial Monks.

At this moment, in front of the royal martial arts platform, there were already surrounded by large and small noble ministers.

This time, the person who presided over this competition was the prime minister of the dynasty and the head of the Zhang family.

"Two contestants, please come to the stage. The head of the Zhang family spoke.

Sima Lan jumped onto the ten-meter-high platform.

"Uncle Xiao be careful. Zong Yue has been following Yang Tong as a bodyguard, and he didn't even sit down at the previous banquet, but was hidden beside him.

This point, the entire banquet hall is only known to Wu Xuan Shenhou, but he did not make it clear, Wu Xuan Shenhou has lived for such a long time, how can he not know the significance of civilization-level geniuses to human civilization, and he has seen many geniuses of this level. Behind them are the true god bodyguards arranged by the upper echelons of human civilization, even if Wu Xuan Shenhou is a god marquis, he does not dare to think crookedly about a genius of this level, unless he wants to betray the race, so he has been pretending not to know.

Sima Lan is indeed worthy of the idol of the empire, she is graceful, handsome, and proud, attracting the eyes of countless nobles and celebrities.

"Don't worry, what can a ninth-level cultivator of the Sacred Realm do to me?" replied with a smile, and jumped onto the martial arts platform.

"Both of them are pillars for a while, and the pilot of the martial arts competition will end soon. The head of the Zhang family reminded, and jumped off the stage after speaking.

At this time, the martial arts platform formation rose, this formation is used to isolate the outside world, not to let the aftermath of the battle disperse, but also to isolate the secret use of other means by some masters in the outside world.

"President Yang, please advise. Sima Lan clenched his fists and said, speaking humbly, but there was a strong arrogance in his voice.

"Where, Sima Shao, please. Yang Tong replied politely, ignoring the other party's arrogance.

Sima Lan was not polite at all, he turned his hand and took out two short thorns, these two short thorns looked extremely extraordinary, the light flickered, the cold air was pressing, and there were secret patterns looming.

"This is actually the heirloom of the Sima family-Xuanbing Thorn!" Several nobles who knew the goods called out.

"This Sima Lan wouldn't have been premeditated, right?

Yang Tong carefully glanced at the pair of Xuanbing Thorns, from the eyes of his refiner, this pair of Xuanbing Thorns was a treasure that surpassed the ordinary gold-level nine-grade spirit tools, and it was already giving birth to a spirit surname. From this point of view, this pair of weapons has existed for many years, absorbing the breath of many monks and evolving, which can be regarded as a half-step spirit treasure.

Chapter 242 Shocking "Take the move, frozen for thousands of miles!" Sima Lan activated a range secret technique of the Xuan Ice Thorn, turning the entire martial arts platform into an ice hegemony world.

The biting cold air erupted violently and rushed towards Yang Tong.

Yang Tong waved his hand, and the three earthen walls seemed to surround themselves, easily blocking the invasion of the cold air, but the entire martial arts platform was frozen, and the cold air was overflowing, which was extremely unfavorable to Yang Tong in terms of location.

And Sima Lan is practicing secret techniques and exercises such as the ice system, in such an environment, it will be of great help to his strength, and under the rise of one and the other, it will have a great impact on the comparison of the strength of the two sides.

Yang Tong also had to admire, this opponent did have two brushes, but that's it.

Yang Tong has already seen the strength of the other party, and the other party is worthy of the title of genius, he has stepped into the door of the law, and has realized the ice mystery in the law of water, and has reached the realm of Xiaocheng, and the fire is not shallow.

However, this kind of strength is far inferior to the weakest genius among Yang Tong's geniuses, let alone facing Yang Tong.

"The Ice God is born!" Sima Lan made another big move, turning into the Lord of Frost with his body, visualizing that the soul was the Ice God, and pointed out coldly and indifferently, pointing at Yang Tong.

A finger light shoots out!

This finger light contains a great power of the law, and it must not be underestimated.

Yang Tong had a hint of surprise, with the cold ice mysteries of the Xiaocheng realm, he was able to exert the power of the Dacheng realm, and such a secret technique could not be underestimated.

But only for a trace of it, and this level of attack was ineffective against him.

Yang Tong lightly raised his sword finger, pointed forward, and stabbed out with a sword qi lightly.

The sword qi ice fingers collided in mid-air, and they froze for a moment, and then both of them turned into nothing.

Sima Lan's face couldn't help but change, and then two Xuanbing thorns were attacked by his envoy towards Yang Tong, and at the same time, the spell of the ancient Cangsang sounded in his mouth.

The spells are intermittent, sometimes large and sometimes small, and the voice is so strange that no one can hear it clearly.

“...... With my body, sacrifice to my god, the supreme power comes, the sacrifice of ice!" Sima Lan's handsome face became hideous and terrifying, his body was changing and expanding, and the muscles and muscles of the Dao Dao were constantly wriggling like countless earthworms, looking extremely terrifying-

Yang Tong was parrying the attack of the two Xuan Ice Spikes, and while looking at Sima Lan, he couldn't help but be startled, and shouted softly: "Wow, it's just a competition, do you need to be so serious?

The forbidden art here does not refer to immortal arts, but "forbidden arts" in the true sense. It refers to those secret methods and moves that will leave more or less sequelae after being cast.

This kind of forbidden technique, generally only when desperate, will be used desperately, after all, compared to the surname, what kind of sequelae are within an acceptable range.

The effects of these forbidden techniques are also different, some are attack and kill, some are defensive and invincible, some are escape and hide, and some are temporarily improving the realm.

After Sima Lan cast the forbidden technique, his mana and realm suddenly rose to a new level, reaching the level of a new demigod. Being able to jump from the ninth level of the Sanctuary to the demigod level, this forbidden technique must be quite powerful, and the level is also quite high, which is not comparable to ordinary forbidden arts.

When the many viewers in the audience saw this scene, their faces couldn't help but change, and everyone was muttering to themselves: "What does this Sima Lan want to do, is it so serious that ordinary people can be tried out?"

The head of the Zhang family secretly transmitted a message to Wu Xuan Shenhou and asked, "Lord of the country, do you want to stop them, this seems to be a bit too much." ”

Wu Xuan Shenhou is also hesitating, the competition on the martial arts platform is not allowed to interfere for the sake of fairness, this is the rule, but now...... At this moment, Sima Lan made a move.

"Ice God One Finger!" "The same fingering, the same secret technique, but the power exerted by different cultivators is definitely different.

I saw a terrifying white finger light shoot out from Sima Lan's fingers.

Yang Tong also shot out with a finger of sword qi, but this time the sword qi was wiped out as soon as it touched the finger light.

"Damn, the consummation of the ice mystery!" Yang Tong was extremely surprised, what kind of forbidden technique is this, it is so powerful, it can actually make people use the consummation mystery.

Ordinary forbidden techniques can leap one or two layers of mana in the same realm.

The high-grade forbidden technique refers to the kind of forbidden technique that can jump into the realm, just like Sima Lan is now, able to jump from the holy realm to the demigod level. can even go from a peak demigod to possess the power of a true god for a short period of time.

No matter how high the forbidden technique is, it is to obtain the improvement of the power of the law when it is cast, which is a leap in the level of the law, and the cost is much greater than the two forbidden techniques.

Wu Xuan Shenhou also saw it at this time, this was no longer an ordinary competition, and when he was about to intervene to stop it, Yang Tong showed some real skills.

I saw Yang Tong summon a big umbrella, the umbrella cover was opened, and it easily blocked Sima Lan's finger, and the three lotuses were not safe, because none of the mysteries of the law of the earth that Yang Tong had comprehended were perfect, and in the face of the consummation of the ice mysteries, they could only dispatch to defend the spiritual treasure.

There are two defensive spirit treasures on Yang Tong's body, one is the Five Elements Mixed Yuan Umbrella, and the other is the purple ribbon fairy clothes worn inside. The Purple Ribbon Immortal Cloth is a close defense, while the Five Elements Mixed Yuan Umbrella is not.

Comparatively speaking, the five-element mixed element umbrella is safer, even if the five-element mixed element umbrella can't be stopped, there is also a purple ribbon fairy clothes to make up for the defense, which is double insurance.

"Stop!" Wu Xuan Shenhou finally stopped decisively, because he had already seen that something was wrong with Sima Lan.

However, accidents inevitably happened.

I saw that Sima Lan rushed towards Yang Tong as if he was crazy, his speed was so fast that it was difficult to see with the naked eye, and he came not far in front of Yang Tong in the blink of an eye.

Wu Xuan Shenhou was just about to make a move to stop it, but a strange smile appeared on the corner of Sima Lan's mouth, and then his body swelled violently.

Wu Xuan Shenhou shouted angrily: "What do you want to do, you dare!"

Rumble!

It exploded violently, a powerful explosion even more terrifying than a nuclear bomb, and even the defensive formation of the martial arts platform could not hold up the explosion.

Everyone was confused, this, what's going on?

Even Zong Yue and Wu Xuan Shenhou didn't have time to stop all this from happening.

Originally, it was just a good martial arts competition, and the two sides did not have a deep hatred, but I didn't expect it to become like this.

Wu Xuan Shenhou couldn't help but panic, this was on his land, and such a thing happened on this occasion, this was simply trapping him in injustice!

If Yang Tong dies here, you can imagine what kind of monstrous anger will descend from the upper echelons of human civilization.

"Someone, pass on my order, and confine everyone in the Sima family for me, and all the nine clans of the Sima family will be arrested by this seat, and no one can be let go. Wu Xuan Shenhou's reaction was extremely fast, and he immediately ordered, in addition to saving people, what needs to be done now is to remedy-

Yang Tong didn't expect the other party to be so crazy, when he saw Sima Lan's strange smile, he understood that he had been calculated, this was a premeditated assassination at all, and it was also an assassination with a calculating intention.

The mana of Yang Tong's whole body was instantly sucked dry by the Five Elements Mixed Yuan Umbrella, and the Five Elements Mixed Yuan Umbrella burst out with amazing power, and he was stunned to block the strongest power of the explosion, leaving only some shock waves, which sent Yang Tong's whole person flying.

The source power bead in Yang Tong's body exerted its power, and the mana that was originally dried up was replenished in just a few breaths.

The spirit treasure is the spirit treasure, and it can automatically absorb the master's mana to protect the master at the moment of danger.

This time, the other party's self-explosion came too suddenly, a demigod suddenly exploded, and it was a close-range explosion between a few meters, this is not a joke, even Yang Tong did not react, if it weren't for the automatic reaction of the Five Elements Mixed Yuan Umbrella, absorbing Yang Tong's mana, and instantly opening his defense to protect Yang Tong, I am afraid that Yang Tong will be seriously injured if he does not die.

"Uncle Junior, are you okay?" Zong Yue caught Yang Tong, who flew out of the martial arts platform, and asked anxiously.

"Fortunately, I have a talisman weapon, otherwise this time I am afraid that it will be more than lucky. Yang Tong said with great joy that this time was definitely the most dangerous and death-close to death since he stepped into the path of cultivation.

"It's good that you're okay, don't compete with anyone else in the future. Zong Yue didn't dare to count Yang Tong's no, so he could only reflect it from the side.

Yang Tong turned his head to look at Wu Xuan Shenhou, and said with a gloomy expression: "Lord Wu Xuan, this time, I hope you can give me an answer, and give an answer to the Mercenary Guild." The important minister of your court, who openly assassinated the president of the mercenary guild, what is the surname of this matter, presumably the lord of the country is quite clear. ”

Wu Xuan Shenhou didn't think so, the other party's current identity is the president of the Mercenary Guild, representing the face of the Mercenary Guild, and he was assassinated by his own people in his own palace, the surname of this matter is so bad, if it is not fair, I am afraid it will affect himself.

Don't think that the true God can do whatever he wants, this incident may alarm the Inquisition of the Gods!

Although it was not instructed by him, if he pursued it, at most some ethnic contribution points would be deducted, but Wu Xuan Shenhou's ethnic contribution points were not easy to obtain, and he didn't want to be "deducted points" because this matter was not handled well.

(To be continued)
