Chapter 257: The Assembly Begins
As Li Xiuping stepped into the ring, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone's eyes were full of anticipation.
After Li Xiuping got into the ring, he smiled and looked at each other.
The red-robed young man frowned slightly, because he didn't expect that this Li Xiuping really only had a foundation building period of cultivation.
In this way, it shows that the rumors are not entirely false.
The red-robed young man spoke first and asked, "Are you Li Xiuping?" ”
Li Xiuping was still smiling and nodded.
The red-robed young man continued: "I heard that you can kill Yuan Ying when you build a foundation, but I want to see if you really have this ability." ”
Li Xiuping smiled and said, "Please." ”
The words fell, and the two of them directly set up a formation.
Long Feng didn't dare to be careless, stepped on the seven stars, and the stars suddenly lit up.
"As long as you can block my attacks, I lose."
Long Feng pinched the seal knot in his hand, looked at Li Xiuping, and said.
Li Xiuping replied with a smile: "Coincidentally, I only have one sword, as long as you can block it, I will lose." ”
When Long Feng said that, there was no reaction from below, because the attack of the Seven Star Array, they had all seen it with their own eyes before, and it was difficult for even six Jindan Stage monks to join forces to resist, let alone a monk who only had a Foundation Building Period.
And when Li Xiuping said this, there was an uproar in the audience.
They really couldn't understand where a monk in the foundation building period got the courage to dare to say such a thing.
Long Feng also frowned, and his mood became even heavier.
From the appearance of Li Xiuping to the present, this young man has behaved too calmly, which is far beyond the mentality that a monk in the foundation building period should have, which is enough to show that Li Xiuping is by no means as simple as it seems on the surface.
Long Feng squinted his eyes and said, "Since that's the case, then let's decide the winner with one move." ”
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "That's exactly what I mean." ”
After speaking, he raised the long sword in his hand, and at the same time, the sword intent around his body continued to emerge, and then kept pouring into the long sword.
Watching Li Xiuping release the sword intent and feeling the changes in that sword at the moment, Long Feng's face became more and more heavy, and he didn't dare to have any contempt for Li Xiuping, and directly released his true qi completely, driving the seven stars at the same time.
As the seven stars lit up, they connected to each other, and then the energy of the next six stars all converged towards the first star.
After the first star absorbed the next six stars, the light became extremely dazzling, like a scorching sun falling into the ring.
Feeling the energy of that star, a solemn look also appeared on Li Xiuping's face.
The power of this star is already comparable to the blow of a strong person in the Yuan Infant Stage.
With his current strength, there is no problem in dealing with the Jindan stage monks, but if he wants to deal with the Yuan Infant Stage powerhouse, he needs to use the power of the immortal treasure, and with only this sword in his hand and the swordsmanship taught by the sword saint senior, he can't guarantee whether he can fight against Li Xiuping himself.
As the star was infused with enough strength, it began to advance towards Li Xiuping.
Around that star, energy continued to explode, and the void exploded.
Around the ring, countless people hurriedly retreated, their faces full of shock.
Li Xiuping looked up at the advancing star, exhaled softly, and then closed his eyes directly.
At this moment, the sword intent that erupted from Li Xiuping's body was even better, constantly condensing on the long sword in his hand.
When the sword intent condensed to a certain extent, Li Xiuping handed the long sword in his hand directly.
The sword qi was like a rainbow, and the speed was far faster than that star.
As the sword qi collided with the star, the space instantly froze, and a white rainbow could be clearly seen running through the entire scorching sun-like star.
After a short silence, the white rainbow-like sword qi continued to soar into the sky, and the star actually exploded in its entirety.
A huge circle of light slammed out in all directions, and the entire ring instantly turned into powder.
That aperture just spread, as if it was instantly stopped by some force, and then disappeared completely.
In this way, those onlookers were spared an unwarranted disaster.
On the other side of the attic, the purple-robed Taoist smiled and said, "How? ”
The red-robed old man's face was gloomy, his eyes were squinted, and he did not speak.
After a long time, the red-robed old man spoke: "The sword washing pool is really willing, and even this kendo method has been taught to him." ”
The purple-robed Taoist also squinted his eyes slightly, and said, "It seems that Qi Wenxing went north before, not just to find a place for his husband, that is to say, the Sword Washing Pool and the Guanchao Academy are really going to unite." ”
The red-robed old man continued, "It seems that we all underestimate that Mr. Ouye. ”
Purple robe said: "Who said no, a mortal, but he can dominate the whole world for so long, and the future is afraid to be ......"
The purple-robed man suddenly squinted his eyes and stared at the other side of the ring, with a trace of killing intent in his eyes, and said, "This son must not stay!" ”
The purple-robed Taoist smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's very difficult to rely on your stargazing tower alone." ”
The red-robed old man turned to look at the purple-robed Taoist and asked, "What if the two of us join forces?" ”
The purple-robed Taoist was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's also difficult." ”
He originally thought that the old man in the red robe would say something, but he didn't expect the old man in the red robe to just squint his eyes and nod slightly.
The red-robed old man continued: "A tide viewing academy, a sword washing pool, and there are so many involvements behind it that I don't know the depths, it's really difficult. ”
The purple-robed Taoist is really a little confused now, why is it so instantaneous, this old guy's attitude has changed so much?
On the other side of the ring, Li Xiuping was holding a long sword and standing on top of the only remaining ring, while Long Feng was standing on the ground, the entire ground was full of cracks, and his body trembled slightly.
There was silence all around, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the two young men, and their hearts were shocked.
Li Xiuping actually won, and with only one sword, he defeated the strongest Tianjiao of the Stargazing Tower.
It turns out that all the rumors are true, and the foundation building period can really fight against the Yuan Infant Period.
Li Xiuping let go of the long sword in his hand, and the twilight flew towards Huang Qing.
Huang Qing took the long sword and sheathed it.
Li Xiuping looked at Long Feng, hugged his fists and said, "Accept!" ”
Long Feng squinted his eyes, his face heavy.
After a while, he asked, "Do you really only have the foundation building period?" ”
Li Xiuping nodded with a smile and said, "It is true that there is only the foundation building period." ”
Long Feng shook his head and said: "Impossible, even if it is the Great Perfection of the Foundation Building Period, even if you have an Immortal Treasure Divine Weapon on your body, it is impossible for you to have such a majestic sword intent." ”
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "It is indeed the foundation building period, but it is not the foundation building consummation. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was a little stunned.
Isn't it the foundation of the Great Perfection? Is it even lower? How is this possible?
Li Xiuping continued: "I should be regarded as the eleventh layer of foundation building now. ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then there was an instant uproar.
Build the eleventh floor of the foundation?!
Everyone knows that there are only nine layers of foundation building, and then you need to condense Jindan, how can you say that there are eleven layers?
Long Feng also looked at Li Xiuping with a puzzled expression, and said in surprise: "Eleventh floor? ”
Li Xiuping nodded, then looked at the people around him, and continued: "It's still the old rule, if you want to challenge, you only need to defeat the six people in the academy, and I will accept his challenge myself." ”
There was silence.
With this battle, who else will come up and challenge?
Even if he can defeat the six people of the academy, it is impossible to defeat such a Li Xiuping.
After Li Xiuping finished speaking, he jumped directly from the remaining ring, and then walked towards his residence, saying, "Build another one." ”
Everyone in the academy nodded at the same time, and then saluted at the same time, sending off this little uncle.
A disciple smiled and said, "Uncle Xiao is really getting more and more powerful. ”
Huang Qing frowned and said, "Uncle Xiao said earlier that the foundation was built on the eleventh floor? ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then nodded at the same time, all with a look of disbelief, they were also the same as those people, it was the first time they had heard that they could cultivate to the eleventh layer during the foundation building period.
After that, the academy rebuilt the ring, but no one went up to challenge.
Time passed slowly, and soon the day of the Seven Holy Lands Assembly began.
And during this time, Li Xiuping basically didn't do anything else except for being proficient in that sword, and Li Xiuping found that constantly practicing the sword dao supernatural power taught by the predecessor of the Sword Saint could actually increase the sword intent in his body, and the spirit crystal of the eleventh layer had begun to approach perfection.
And as the spirit crystal on the eleventh layer became more complete, the orb on the willow tree also became much smaller, and now it was possible to see the light emitted from it.
The glow emitted by the sphere was no longer the green glow it had before, but a purple glow.
It is obviously impossible to see what is in the sphere in a short period of time, so what Li Xiuping is most concerned about is whether the willow tree will continue to grow.
If the spirit crystal of the eleventh layer was completely condensed, and the willow tree continued to absorb it, then his idea of wanting to form a pill would be completely frustrated.
If that's the case, if you want to condense the golden pill within two hundred years, I'm afraid you have to think of other ways.
At this moment, the Sword Saint senior walked into the courtyard and asked, "Are you all ready?" ”
Everyone in the academy walked out one after another, nodded their heads, and then looked at Li Xiuping's room.
Li Xiuping also opened the door at this time and walked out. Although he changed into a Confucian shirt, he still had the firewood knife pinned to his waist and the wine jug hanging from his waist, no matter how he looked at it, he was carrying a sword in his hand.
This sword was forged by him on Xiandu at the beginning, and the rest were given to everyone in the academy as gifts, and now there is only such a spirit sword in his hand that can barely be handled.
After Li Xiuping walked out of the room, he looked at the green-shirted swordsman and asked, "Will there be strong people from the Seven Holy Lands this time?" ”
The green-shirted swordsman nodded and said, "Except for the Guanchao Academy, almost all other holy places have at least one strong person. ”
As if knowing what Li Xiuping was worried about, he continued: "Don't worry, the strongest is not too strong, and this is Drifting Snow City, no one dares to make a move on you here." ”
Li Xiuping simply asked, "What realm is Taiyi Pavilion from?" ”
The green-shirted swordsman replied: "An old Taoist in the distraction period, there has been no movement during this time, but the stargazing tower seems to have been in contact with the Taiyi Pavilion a lot, if you guess correctly, it should be a union, so as to break the union between the Guanchao Academy and the Sword Washing Pool." ”
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "Stargazing Tower? ”
The green-shirted swordsman nodded and said: "It's the sect of the person who fought against you before, those guys have a particularly peculiar cultivation, basically they can't have qualifications and talents, and they are all collected by some strange people, such as the person who fought against you, it is rumored that it is the reincarnation of an immortal, according to them, every time a strong person dies, it will be accompanied by the birth of a star, and the reincarnated person can directly borrow the power of the star as a practice." ”
Li Xiuping and everyone in the academy were stunned.
The blue-shirted swordsman said with a smile: "That is, the rumor, whether it is true or not, involves the secrets of the Stargazing Tower, and it is impossible for outsiders to know." ”
He continued: "Let's go, the conference is about to start, and I don't know what kind of method the City Lord's Mansion will come up with this time." ”
Huang Qing asked at this time: "The Seven Holy Lands, the Four Great Cities, this Drifting Snow City is one of the Four Cities, doesn't that belong to the Four Cities and the Seven Holy Lands?" ”
The green-shirted swordsman frowned and said, "Regarding the situation of the Seven Holy Lands and the Four Cities, the academy didn't tell you?" ”
Huang Qing shook his head and said, "Except for those sage books that give people a headache, Mr. usually doesn't say anything. ”
The green-shirted swordsman nodded and said, "This is also like the style of the academy, so I'll tell you about it." ”
As he spoke, he walked directly to the outside and said, "The so-called Seven Holy Lands are not only seven Holy Lands, but also seven different forces, and the Four Cities are not just four big cities, but also four different forces. The Holy Land of Drifting Snow City and the City Lord's Mansion are both in Drifting Snow City, but they are not the same force. ”
After everyone followed, he continued: "It is rumored that the Holy Land first appeared, and then this city was named Drifting Snow City, and then there was the City Lord's Mansion, according to the time, Drifting Snow City appeared about a thousand years earlier than the City Lord's Mansion. ”
Li Xiuping nodded and said with a smile: "In the past, about time, it was at most a hundred years, but now when I hear the time, it is all about a thousand years, or even ten thousand years, which is really ......."
For a moment, he didn't know how to express it.
The green-shirted swordsman said with a smile: "When the cultivation reaches a certain level, time will seem worthless, but the most valuable thing is often time, so time is really a very magical existence." ”
Li Xiuping said quietly: "If my master can live for another hundred years, how good it would be." ”
The green-shirted swordsman shook his head and said: "That's not necessarily a good thing, in less than a hundred years, the situation in the entire world has changed dramatically because of him, if there is another hundred years, those guys will not allow it." ”
He paused, looked at Li Xiuping, and continued: "Just like you now, if Mr. Ou Ye is still alive, the situation will only be similar to you, you can still protect yourself, but he may not, after all, you and Mr. Ou Ye are completely different." ”
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "Except for my current strength in the foundation building period, what's the difference?" With my current strength, in front of the powerhouses of the Transformation Stage, I am no different from mortals? ”
The green-shirted swordsman shook his head and said: "The threshold of entering the cultivation and the threshold of not entering the cultivation are two people from completely different worlds, to be precise, with a spiritual root and without a spiritual root, they are two people from completely different worlds, although you do not have a spiritual root, but you can cross the threshold, and naturally you no longer belong to the ordinary." ”
The green-shirted swordsman said as he walked forward: "When you enter the cultivation world, the involvement between the body and the world will be completely different, which is also the reason why no one can track down your whereabouts before you build a foundation, and after you build a foundation, your name appears in the immortal book, and some people can naturally quickly find your location through some means." Of course, this is not to say that it is easier to find a cultivator than to find a mortal, but mortals are not inferior to the cultivation world, and they will not have any great impact on the cultivation world, and naturally no one will take it to heart. ”
Li Xiuping nodded thoughtfully, recalling that the situation before and after he built the foundation was indeed completely different.
The green-shirted swordsman continued: "Although your master is involved a lot, and the impact on the cultivation world is also very great, but in the final analysis, he is just a mortal, these old guys really want to deal with him, they don't need to do it themselves, just find some magical powers, and they can completely do it without knowing it, but you are different, because you successfully build the foundation, the involvement on your body will only be greater, so even if those old guys really use any means, it will be difficult to affect you, and it is said that they will directly kill you unconsciously." If you want to kill you, you can only do it yourself, so as long as there are strong people around you, their purpose will be difficult to achieve, and it will be ......"
He paused again, but this time he didn't continue, as if he was thinking about something.
Li Xiuping asked, "What? ”
The green-shirted swordsman shook his head and said: "I can't say the specifics, but the involvement of you is far more complicated than you imagined, and you may even be afraid of Kunlun Mountain, so you haven't been involved." ”
Huang Qing frowned and said, "Isn't it because of the deterrence of that wine fairy senior? ”
The green-shirted swordsman said with a smile: "The deterrence of that wine fairy senior is naturally there, but your little uncle has now determined that he is standing on the opposite side of Taoism, if you really want him to grow up, it will inevitably have a big impact on the Taoist inheritance, for the sake of Taoist inheritance, even if you really want to offend that wine fairy senior, they are afraid that they will try it." This kind of thing, those guys have done it, and there has been no movement in Kunlun Mountain until now, which can only show that the involvement of your little uncle can completely shake the entire Taoist inheritance. ”
Everyone in the academy looked stunned and looked at Li Xiuping in disbelief.
Li Xiuping also frowned at the moment, falling into thought.
He wondered, could this have something to do with his background?
Compared with the practice of immortality, what he cares more about is his life experience, where he comes from, and who are his parents?
It's just that Li Xiuping couldn't help but didn't ask, because this Sword Saint senior also said it, and he didn't know the specific situation.
I don't even know what is involved in him, and I'm afraid it's impossible to know his background.
But Li Xiuping firmly believes that he will be able to solve this mystery one day, and to solve this mystery, he must become strong.
It just so happens that becoming stronger does not conflict with cultivating immortality, so there is no need to think about it, just practice hard, and now, there is a chance to become stronger, that is, to win the top of the Seven Holy Land Conference and enter the so-called ancient battlefield relics.
According to Qi Wenxing and Liu Shanzhu, in the ruins, the benefits he can get will be far better than the benefits he can get in Penglai Xianzhou.
