Chapter 121: The Challenge (I)
"Squeak".
The door of the main hall slowly opened, revealing a spacious hall inside, this hall didn't even seem to have any furnishings, only a dozen large chairs.
The rest of the places are all vacant, but Ji Cheng, as a palm seal master, immediately showed the difference of the hall, and in this vacant place, a dense striped road was carved on the ground.
Although Ji Cheng had never seen these lines, he had heard Ji Changkong mention them at the beginning, there is a peculiar method called formation, which can depict some peculiar patterns through guò, supplemented by vitality stones, then the power of the formation can be aroused.
If it is a powerful formation, it can even trap or kill a powerful palm sealer!
Ji Cheng immediately understood that these lines should be the formation of the depiction.
As if seeing Ji Cheng's puzzled gaze, Yi Zu explained with a low smile: "This is a formation, specially carved, and when the time comes, when the Nine Cities Grand Ceremony, when the palm seal masters are discussing, they can use it." ”
Ji Cheng didn't have much research on the formation, ordinary people just condensed the power of the divine pattern and cultivated the various inheritance seals, but they didn't have enough energy, let alone study the formation.
The means of the palm seal master are as vast as smoke, if they are really proficient in everything, it is simply impossible, the root of the palm seal master is still the main seal of the divine pattern, or the mystery of comprehending the power of heaven and earth.
"Haha, the Nine Cities Festival has finally begun, and the old man can't wait!"
From outside the door, there was a hearty laugh, followed by a white figure, like a burst of flames. Stormy broke in.
This is an old man with a white beard, his face full of red light, and he looks in good spirits. However, his two long eyebrows are very eye-catching.
"Long-eyebrow ancestor, you are still the same!"
As soon as he saw this old man, Yi Zu showed a smile on his face, and it seemed that he was friendly with the Long Eyebrow Old Ancestor.
"Haha, Yi Zu, the once-in-a-century nine-city festival. I'm already a little impatient, some of my junior disciples. There are some palm seal master qualifications, and they always need vitality stones, tsk, it's really poor. If you can get some more Yuan Qi Stone veins this time, you can always alleviate it. ”
Although the elder elder elder said heavily, he couldn't hide a trace of joy on his face, it seemed that there should be some geniuses in his clan, which made him overjoyed.
However, no matter how gifted a genius is, he also needs a Yuan Qi Stone, and there is no Yuan Qi Stone. The palm seal master can't grow either, so the Nine Cities Festival is held once every hundred years. The strongest of these nine cities will use all their means to fight for a good ranking in the grand ceremony, so as to get more Yuan Qi Stone veins.
With the arrival of the Changmei Ancestor, next, some palm seal masters flew in 6 more times. They are all the lords of a city, and they are all in control of a clan. Become a hegemon. Only at the once-in-a-century festival of the Nine Cities would they come together.
The nine people in the main hall almost represent a vast ruling area, for example, Yi Zu represents the entire grassland, and Ji Cheng represents the southernmost mountains and forests in the Southern Regions, etc., although compared to the entire Southern Regions, this area is really inconspicuous, but it is still a very vast place.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the nine people in the main hall are the unattainable great beings!
"Okay, everyone who should come is here, the Nine Cities Festival can begin! Feng'er, go out and guard, no one is allowed to enter the main hall. ”
Jiang Feng nodded, every time there was a grand ceremony in the Nine Cities, there were only nine people in the main hall, and no one knew what was going on inside.
After seeing Jiang Feng leave, Bai Hong, the white-clothed swordsman, looked at Ji Cheng for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Yi Zu, this is your new disciple? The Nine Cities Grand Ceremony does not allow any unrelated personnel to participate, even if it is your disciple, you should step down." ”
"Yes, you should step back. ”
"By the way, what about Bei Zhen? They Bei Cheng sent people to participate every time, isn't it that they are afraid of losing face again this time, so they simply don't come?"
"Haha, Bei Zhen is at the bottom every time, if he doesn't come, he can be regarded as the bottom, whether he comes or not, it doesn't matter if he comes. ”
These palm printmakers seem to be very familiar with Pei Zhen, but the tone is very "contemptuous", it seems that Pei Zhen participates in the Nine Cities Festival, every time he is afraid that he is at the bottom of the ranking, and he has not received any benefits, so these palm sealers are so "contemptuous".
Yi Zu just wanted to speak, but Ji Cheng shook his head slightly, and went directly to the last seat, which was the original position of Bei Zhen, and sat down directly.
"Everyone, Bei Zhen can't come, and Bei Cheng will be changed to Ji Cheng from now on!"
"What? Bei Zhen can't come?"
At this moment, everyone looked at each other, they naturally understood the meaning of this sentence, originally they were all the same as Bai Hong before, thinking that Ji Cheng was so young and a new disciple of Yi Zu.
Unexpectedly, it was not like this at all, but, faintly representing Bay City, the lord of a city, and their status was the same.
"Haha, you don't know yet, right? ”
Yi Zu laughed out loud and introduced to the others: "This old brother Ji Cheng, I don't have the blessing to accept such a genius disciple. Brother Ji Cheng was born in a small village around Beicheng, but he rose in a very short period of time, became a palm seal master by chance, and killed the three major palm seal masters of Beicheng with the power of one person. Therefore, Bei Zhen and the others have become the souls of Ji Cheng's elder brother, and now Bei Cheng has also become Ji Cheng and a member of our Nine Cities Alliance!"
Hearing Yi Zu's introduction, these palm print artists who originally had a smile on their faces looked at Ji Cheng, who was still a little immature, and they were faintly shocked in their hearts.
Bei Zhen is indeed inferior to them, but Bei Cheng has three major palm seal ancestors, but he didn't expect that the three of them were killed by this young man who looked a little immature, such a talent is indeed terrifying.
No matter what Ji Cheng's strength is, but there is one point, it is definitely stronger than Bei Zhen, I am afraid that with the help of this Nine Cities Festival, the pattern of the Nine Cities Alliance will change in the future.
"Haha, congratulations to Ji Cheng!"
Everyone else congratulated as well. The Nine Cities Alliance, in fact, very few have been wiped out, and no matter how bad Bei Zhen is. It was also the palm seal master who had survived several body robberies, but now he was killed by Ji Cheng, and these palm seal masters even had a feeling of kinship.
"Okay, now that the nine cities are gathered, then the Nine Cities Festival will begin, close the door!"
As Yi Zu's words fell, suddenly. The heavy door began to slowly close.
The hall was dark. But soon, some candles were lit, and there were also some gems that shone softly. The interior of the main hall is reflected as if it were daytime.
"Everyone, this Nine Cities Festival is still the old rule, let me first introduce to you, the newly emerged Yuan Qi Stone vein. In the past hundred years, the newly emerged Yuanqi stone veins in various places belong to the territory, so I won't mention it much. Outside the territory, that is, the existing Yuan Qi Stone veins in the Borderlands, there are a total of twenty-eight. It's all small veins, here's the map, I've marked them all. They haven't been mined yet, just waiting for the Nine Cities Grand Ceremony to decide the ownership of these Yuan Qi stone veins and start mining. ”
After that, Yi Zu took out a map, which marked the twenty-eight new Yuan Qi stone veins in the past hundred years.
Ji Cheng also took a closer look, this map is very large. It's also very far from Ji City, just. In such a vast place, only twenty-eight Yuan Qi Stone veins have only appeared in a hundred years, and the area ruled by the Nine Cities Alliance is indeed very barren.
"Twenty-eight veins, still the old rules, ranked first, occupy three percent. The second place occupies two percent, the third to sixth places all occupy one percent, and the seventh, eighth, and ninth places occupy the last percent. ”
This is the division of the Yuanqi Stone vein, which was originally divided according to the strength of the palm seals of each city, which is the essence of the Nine Cities Festival.
"These last three occupy one percent, how to divide it?"
Ji Cheng suddenly asked.
"It's very simple, if you don't want to divide, then the last three can challenge each other, and once they fail, then the Yuan Qi Stone veins they occupy in their hands will all be left to each other. ”
Ji Cheng nodded, which means that if the seventh place can effectively suppress the strength of the eighth and ninth places, then the two people who will challenge them separately will plunder all the shares of the Yuan Qi Stone veins on their bodies, and the seventh place will occupy one percent, and the eighth and ninth places will not be able to divide a single Yuan Qi Stone.
"It seems that Pei Zhen Ancestor participated in the Nine Cities Grand Ceremony, I am afraid that every time he is challenged, and he will be defeated in the end, and not a single Yuan Qi Stone will be allocated to ......."
Ji Cheng also seemed to think of Pei Zhen's ancestor in his heart, that was before there was no Chiguang Suo, maybe Pei Zhen wanted to rely on Chiguang Shuo to participate in the Nine Cities Grand Ceremony, but now he has no chance.
"Okay, everyone should know the rules, so now, the Nine Cities Festival has officially begun!"
As Yi Zu's words fell, the atmosphere of the entire hall seemed to freeze all at once.
The seats in the main hall are placed according to the ranking of the previous ceremony, and if there is no one to challenge in the end, then the allocation will be allocated according to the ranking of the previous time.
Ji Cheng looked at it, he was sitting in ninth place, the last time Bei Zhen participated in the Nine Cities Festival, he was really at the bottom.
The number one is naturally Yi Zu, he sits high in the first position and becomes the number one ranked, in addition to occupying a lot of shares, there is also an advantage, that is, he automatically becomes the leader of the Nine Cities Alliance, and at a certain level, he can even command the other eight cities.
The second place was not surprising, it was the white-clothed swordsman Bai Hong, he closed his eyes slightly, as if the qiē in the main hall had nothing to do with him, but everyone could feel the fierce sword intent emanating from his body.
The third is the long-eyebrow ancestor with a white beard and a ruddy complexion.
As for the fourth to eighth, Ji Chengdu doesn't know him, but they must be stronger than Bei Zhen at the beginning, otherwise, Bei Zhen would not have been ranked at the bottom.
The atmosphere in the hall was very solemn, and no one had ever opened their mouths to challenge, in fact, only the first and second place shares were much higher than others, and after the seventh place, it was much lower than the share above the sixth place, and there was no need to challenge the other ranks.
After a long time, the old ancestor with long eyebrows finally spoke: "I'll come first, Bai Hong, I lost to you last time, this time, the old man wants to learn your swordsmanship again!"
The long-eyebrow ancestor stood up, and he actually wanted to challenge Bai Hong. But think about it, the Long Mei Ancestor ranks third, and he can only challenge Bai Hong, who is in second place, to hope for more shares.
"You're not my opponent!"
Bai Hong opened his eyes violently, and there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes.
"Hehe, Bai Hong, you just narrowly won last time, and in the past hundred years, you are not the only one who has made progress. Come on, see what kind of situation your swordsmanship has reached?"
After that, the Long Mei Ancestor walked directly into the open space surrounded by formation patterns, staring at Bai Hong with a high fighting spirit.
