There are three important competitions in Kunlun every year, the Dandao apprentice competition, the first-grade alchemy master competition, and then the competition of disciples in the Qi refining period, among them, the reward for the disciples in the Qi refining period is the most generous, after all, Kunlun has the most law cultivation, and the evaluation of the strength of any sect is also the number of views and cultivation, especially the number of high-level immortal cultivators such as Yuan Ying Huashen Breaking Void.

Li Yu originally thought that ten Tuomai Pills a year would be four hundred in forty years, as long as he didn't build a foundation and participated in the competition for forty years in a row, he would be able to save enough Tuomai Dan to cultivate to the Jindan period, but Wu Tong's words extinguished his hopes.

The top three in the big competition during the gas refining period can only participate in the big competition once, and if they enter the top three this time, they will not be able to participate in the future.

Otherwise, there will be some disciples in the Qi refining period, who will stay in this realm and wait until they have earned enough Tuomai Dan to build a foundation, which will undoubtedly greatly damage the fairness of the competition.

It seems that it is not easy to get the wool of the sect.

Among the three competitions, only the first-grade alchemist has a big competition, and there is no limit to the number of participations, but after Li Yu builds the foundation, he will definitely be promoted to a second-grade alchemist, and this wool can't be used.

Anyway, if you are idle, you are idle, and you just took the ten Tuomai Dan by hand.

At first, Li Yu thought that the big competition between the disciples in the Qi refining period was that the two disciples fought to divide the winners and losers, but he was ridiculed by Wu Tong for not knowing it, and that kind of backward competition was already a thousand years ago.

The disciple Dabi of the Qi refining period, like the illusion trial, is carried out in the illusion realm.

All the disciples, in the illusion realm, face the same opponent, defeat the opponent, and the shortest time is the leader of Dabi.

The real fighting method, it is inevitable that there will be casualties, this way, not only can reduce the casualty rate to zero, but also greatly improve efficiency, thousands of years ago, the major schools abandoned the primitive and backward test method, the introduction of this more scientific way......

There are tens of thousands of disciples in the Kunlun Qi refining period, and if you really want to compete in pairs, not only will it take a lot of space, manpower and material resources, but you will also have an accurate ranking, and the number of matches you will have is even more incalculable.

And with the method of illusion trial, there is almost no need to organize any manpower, as long as a magic weapon similar to a thousand miles of rivers and mountains, in three days, the competition can be ended, and the specific ranking can be discharged, which is extremely efficient, and once it appears, it will be adopted by all factions.

When Li Yu came to Tongtian Peak, it was crowded with people and there was almost no place to stay.

The huge square in front of the hall is impossible to get off at all, and in terms of formation, it is better than when Li Yu first broke through the trial.

Among them, only a small number of people came to participate in the competition, and most of the disciples came to see the excitement.

After all, this competition every year is for those real Tianjiao of the sect, and it is extremely difficult, and only those who have the strength of the ninth level of single spirit vein qi refining are eligible to participate in the competition.

Although there are tens of thousands of disciples in the Kunlun Qi Refining Period, there are very few of them in the ninth level of Qi refining, only more than a thousand people.

On the square in front of the trial hall, there is a huge picture scroll, and next to the picture scroll, there is a water curtain suspended, and the words on the water curtain float, all of which are the names of people who have participated in the trial.

Watching the lively disciples crowd Tongtian Peak to the brim, looking at the trial list, there were many discussions.

"Ten Tuomai Pills, I'm really envious, but it's a pity that it has nothing to do with our ordinary disciples."

"Last year's champion was one from Yuling Peak, I don't know who it will be this year?"

"Nonsense, this year's leader, who is Senior Brother Sheli?"

"Hey, it's strange, why isn't there Senior Brother Li's name on the trial list?"

"Senior Brother Li hasn't come yet, he should be practicing hard at home, except for trials on weekdays, it is rare to see him go out, it is precisely because of such hard work that he has his current cultivation......"

"It's coming, Senior Brother Li is here!"

……

Li Yu landed on Tongtian Peak, and the disciples automatically made way for him.

In the middle of the square, there is a huge picture scroll floating, a formation covering a radius of ten zhang, separating a space, some disciples are crowded outside the formation, and a few disciples can pass through the formation without obstacles.

Li Yu can be regarded as an introduction to the way of the formation, and at a glance, it can be seen that the function of this formation is to screen, and only the cultivation above the ninth level of qi refining can pass through this formation.

He walked through the passage left by the crowd and easily entered the formation.

The competition of the disciples in the Qi refining period, whether it is the process or the ranking, is fully automatic, there is only one elder in the foundation building period, two deacon disciples are watching here, and the three people are also Li Yu's acquaintances, they are in charge of the illusion trial on weekdays, and they are the ones who give him the pill every time.

The old man who built the foundation saw Li Yu and said with a smile: "The old man just said that if I don't see you tomorrow, I will let people go to Ziyun Peak to call you." ”

Li Yu smiled and said, "I also just learned the news of the competition. ”

The old man pointed to the scroll and said: "The first time you participate in the competition, I will talk to you about the rules, in fact, this competition is similar to the illusion trial, after you enter with the disciple token, the illusion space will conjure up an opponent, the strength is at the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining, you can beat him as fast as possible, everyone only has one chance, remember not to waste time." ”

Li Yu smiled: "Got it." ”

After speaking, he held the disciple token in his hand and entered the picture scroll.

The next moment, he flashed out of the scroll again.

The disciples inside and outside the formation were also paying attention to Li Yu.

The second on the trial list, there is no doubt that he is the first disciple in the contemporary Kunlun Qi refining period, and there is no suspense at all when he breaks through such a trial, after all, the difficulty of this test is much smaller than the illusion trial.

They watched Li Yu's figure enter the competition space, and with just a blink of an eye, he came out again.

"Uh, was I dazzled just now?"

"Why do I seem to see Senior Brother Li go in?"

"The competition shouldn't be over so soon, right?"

"I'm not dazzled, you look at the list next to ......"

After being reminded, they looked at the list next to the picture scroll, and then saw that the first name on the water curtain had become Li Yu.

"I just blinked......"

"That's too fast, isn't it?"

"Is there an opponent we met in the Illusion?"

"It's normal, Senior Sister Qin participated in the competition back then, and she ...... so fast"

This kind of speed made some of the peak disciples of the ninth layer of qi refining who had just finished the competition doubt their lives, the opponent in the illusion realm, the strength was the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining, and the attack and defense were very balanced, it was difficult to defeat him with an ordinary ninth layer of qi refining.

Those Tianjiao with two spirit veins and three spirit veins, even if they can be defeated, it will take a little time.

For a hundred years, the person who can end the competition so quickly, except for Senior Sister Qin, is Li Yu.

Coming out of the competition space, in the shocked eyes of everyone, Li Yu leisurely flew back to Ziyun Peak.

This level of competition is naturally not difficult for him now, that phantom of the ninth layer of qi refining, he can kill it in seconds if he shoots casually, as long as he waits for the reward at home.

The competition lasted for three days.

Until the last day, when the competition ended, Li Yu's name was firmly at the top of the list, and no one could surpass it.

This is naturally what everyone expected, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this competition was prepared for him, and before the competition, such a result was doomed.

In the courtyard, Li Yu sat in the pavilion, and in the jade box on the stone table in front of him, ten pills were neatly placed.

This is the Tuomai Pill, which looks extremely similar to the Tongmai Pill, but the volume is a little larger than the Tongmai Pill, and when he opened the jade box, Li Yu felt the rich spiritual power contained in the pill.

A Tuomai Pill can only be bought with 10,000 spirit coins in Kunlun, but this is just the price, in fact, Tuomai Dan can't be bought with spirit coins at all, and can only be exchanged for contributions.

The current Li Yu can't take Tuomai Dan.

Before the foundation was built, his spiritual veins were not tough enough to hold so much spiritual energy, and one Tuomai Pill could make one of his spiritual veins abolished, and he had to practice all five spiritual veins to the foundation building period before he could start taking the Tuomai Pill.

After looking at it for a while, Li Yu put away these Tuomai Pills and waited until the foundation was built before taking them.

At present, for him, it is still the Tongmai Pill that is more useful.

It's a pity that apart from surpassing Senior Sister Qin on the trial list and being able to obtain ten Tongmai Pills, and a fixed three per month, he no longer has any other channels to obtain Tongmai Pills.

On this day, Li Yu was reading a book in the pavilion, and the doorbell of the courtyard rang again.

He opened the door, but there was no human figure, there was a thin booklet on the ground, Li Yu picked it up, and walked back to the courtyard.

This is the "Kunlun Monthly" issued by Wu Tong, which will excerpt some important news of the sect, Wu Tong's business, getting bigger and bigger, the information on the Kunlun Monthly is not only limited to Kunlun, but in the past month, the strange things that have happened in the entire immortal cultivation world.

Wu Tong is obviously measured, he knows a lot of secrets of the sect, but the Kunlun monthly newspaper is more of some well-known or harmless entertainment news.

These things are not considered sect secrets, and the sect will not care about him.

And many Kunlun disciples, either doing tasks outside, or burying their heads in cultivation, have no channels to get news, some of them are not bad for spirit coins, they will subscribe to a Kunlun monthly report, and a special person will send it to their door every month to make up for their lack of news channels, at least they can know what has happened in the sect in the past month.

Li Yu walked back to the courtyard, came to the swing, took Senior Sister Zhou in his arms, and the two read the newspaper together.

The headline on the front page of this issue of Kunlun Monthly was naturally the death of Elder Zhao.

Jin Dan period cultivation, or a three-grade alchemist, his status in the sect is not inferior to some ancestors in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, just died in such an unknown way, it can be regarded as the top priority that happened in Kunlun last month.

Li Yu became the second on the trial list and won the first place in the Qi refining period disciple competition, close to this news.

One of the seven sons of Kunlun, Senior Sister Xu of Yuzhu Peak, who cultivated to break through the Jindan period, was also on it.

Wu Tong is in Kunlun, and I don't know how many sources there are, some Tianjiao cultivators of the sect have broken through, and the two Jindan elders have formed a double cultivator, which is clearly recorded......

After Kunlun's news ended, there were some anecdotes in the immortal cultivation world.

Not long ago, Li Yu appeared in Emei Cave, accompanied by Bai Qingying, one of the four beauties of Emei, to try to break through the Emei Fantasy Trial, and the matter of reaching the top of the Emei Trial List is actually recorded.

Next is also a piece of Emei news, Emei sent two male Tianjiao, announced in public that they had become Taoist couples, and Li Yu could already imagine the expressions of some male disciples in Kunlun.

I was fortunate to be a disciple of Emei, so many beautiful senior sisters and sisters around me didn't choose, but actually chose a man, Kunlun disciples can't understand it, and normal people like Li Yu can't understand it.

He looked down at the beautiful woman with the warm fragrance of nephrite in his arms, and he really couldn't figure it out.

If you don't understand, you don't understand, Li Yu still respects their choice.

The monthly report also said that the "Qingcheng Six Arts" of the Qingcheng faction had changed last month, and one of them was over 30 years old and automatically lost his name, and one of the younger disciples of the Qingcheng faction took his place......

Speaking of which, the "Seven Sons of Kunlun" and "Emei Four Beauties" are the same, once they exceed their age, they will also lose their names and be replaced by younger Tianjiao, and the upper age limit set by each faction seems to be thirty years old.

The candidates of the four beauties of Emei have not changed, but the twelve hairpins have undergone some changes, three of the twelve hairpins, because of age, lost their names, and the three sisters of the Zhao family inherited their positions.

Their appearance is already outstanding, and they are born with the attributes of triplets, and they are also very famous in Emei.

Li Yu swept through these messages, until he saw an inconspicuous message in the corner of a certain page of the booklet, and his spirit was suddenly shocked.

I saw that in the corner of the monthly report, there was a line of small words: "Zhou Tian, a disciple of the Soul Refining Sect, was chased and killed by the disciples of the Five Poisons Sect and fled into the Thousand Poison Caves, and his current whereabouts are unknown......"

On the booklet, this seemingly inconspicuous information immediately attracted Li Yu's attention.

He has always paid attention to the name of Zhou Tian.

At the beginning of Baiyun Temple, he and Zhou Zixuan were calculated by the other party twice, and Zhou Zixuan was even more injured because of this, Li Yu and him can be said to have already formed a relationship.

Later, what made Li Yu remember him was naturally a high reward, this person's head, Kunlun offered a reward of ten Tongmai Pills, and Tiandao Sect offered a reward of fifty, adding up to sixty Tongmai Pills, which was enough for Li Yu to open up all the spiritual veins, and there were still thirty for Zhou Zixuan.

Although she didn't have the luxury of eating Tongmai Dan as a meal like Li Yu, through her own cultivation, plus three fixed Tongmai Pills per month, the acupuncture points of the Wood Spirit Vein had also been opened up to twenty, and after taking thirty Tongmai Pills, she would be able to immediately advance from the third layer of Qi Refining to the seventh layer of Qi Refining.

Zhou Tian's traces appeared in the Demon Dao, and Li Yu wanted to find the demon girl to verify it, but he tried to contact the demon girl, but found that there was no response from the other side.

This made Li Yu a little strange, in this case, the only possibility was that the demon girl blocked him.

Women are really incomprehensible animals, when they first concluded the soul contract, they clearly said that Li Yu was there when they contacted her, and there was really something to look for her, but they couldn't find anyone at all......

The demon girl was not contacted, so Li Yu had to go to Wu Tong.

Wu Tong now doesn't live in Danding Peak.

Although he is still an apprentice of Dan Dao, in Kunlun, as long as he has spirit coins, he can not live in the gathering area of low-level disciples, not long ago, he moved to Chaoyang Peak, where he lives with some young disciples, either alchemists or refiners, or Qi refining ninth-level cultivators......

Wu Tong spends a huge amount of spirit coins every month and rents a small courtyard here.

Li Yu came to Chaoyang Peak according to the address that Wu Tong told him in his memory, and after ringing the doorbell, no one came out.

It seems that Wu Tong should not be at home, he spends most of his time every day collecting information, and sometimes he will leave the sect to collect, it is not easy to find him, however, Li Yu knows that if he is in the sect, he will generally be in Tongtian Peak, Tianzhu Peak and Feilai Peak.

These peaks have gathered the most disciples, and the flow of information is the fastest.

Li Yu's luck was good, he didn't find him in Tongtian Peak, and when he came to Tianzhu Peak, he had just landed, and he saw a certain place under the task wall, Wu Tong and several disciples whispered.

After they finished talking, Li Yu walked towards Wu Tong.

When he saw Li Yu, Wu Tong was surprised and said, "Hey, Li Yu, you are here to take over the task, there doesn't seem to be any Tongmai Dan task at present." ”

Li Yu said: "I'm here to find you." ”

Wu Tong was surprised: "What are you looking for me to do?" ”

Li Yu took out the monthly report, pointed to one of the pages and said, "Soul Refining Sect disciple Zhou Tian's news, where did you get it, is it true?" ”

Wu Tong looked at it and said: "This news was not collected by me, it was first transmitted by Xiaoyaomen, there should be no fake, they are in the two realms of righteousness and demons, they have many eyeliners, and a lot of news from the immortal cultivation world is what I got from them, and then sorted it into the monthly report." ”

Xiaoyaomen is the largest scattered cultivation organization in the immortal cultivation world, and it is also the largest intelligence organization, and the timeliness and authenticity are some of the intelligence guidelines they uphold.

Li Yu felt that Wu Tong and Xiaoyaomen should have cooperation, and they might usually exchange news, and there were disciples like him in all major sects.

Wu Tong looked at Li Yu and asked, "What, are you interested in him?" ”

Li Yu said: "The Heavenly Dao Sect and we combined, offering a reward of sixty Tongmai Pills, who is not interested?" ”

Wu Tong said with a smile: "Then you have to hurry up, there are many people who are attracted by the fifty Tongmai Pills of the Heavenly Dao Sect, not to mention our righteous path disciples, even the Demon Dao, and even the fellow disciples of the Soul Refining Sect, all want Zhou Tian's head, the news of Xiaoyaomen is released, I'm afraid that now, many people have gone to look for him......"

Li Yu asked, "Where is the Thousand Poison Cave?" ”

Wu Tong told him: "In the depths of the Nanzhao Smoke Miasma, it is a first-order secret realm, but few people usually enter it, that secret realm is full of poisonous smoke and miasma, and there are all kinds of powerful poisonous beasts, even if it is a disciple at the peak of the ninth layer of qi refining, there is no antidote pill, it can't last long there, even the disciples of the Five Poisons Sect are unwilling to enter, the reason why the ancient Nanzhao Kingdom perished and became a no-man's smoke miasma is because of the connection between the secret realm of the Thousand Poison Caves and the big world......"

After Wu Tong heard the news he wanted, Li Yu returned to Ziyun Peak.

That Zhou Tian was also smart, knowing that with the huge reward given to him by the Heavenly Dao Sect, he would become the target of the immortal cultivation world, and both the righteous and demonic realms wanted his head, and it was likely that even the strong people in the foundation building period would be attracted, so he simply ran to a first-order secret realm.

Those who can enter the first-order secret realm are only the ninth layer of qi refining at most, avoiding the possibility of encountering the pursuit of the foundation building period.

The special illusion of the Thousand Poison Cave makes it difficult for the ninth layer of qi refining to survive, and if you want his head, you have to weigh it carefully.

However, his own cultivation is not very high, and it is speculated from the strength of the spirit ghosts he raised that a year ago, Zhou Tian's strength would not exceed the fifth layer of qi refining, unless he had an inexhaustible detoxification pill, otherwise, it would be a dead end for him to enter the Thousand Poison Cave.

Even if it doesn't become a meal for the poisonous beasts there, it will be poisoned to death by the miasma.

For Zhou Tian's head, Li Yu is determined to win, and finally has news of him, so naturally the new and old accounts are counted together.

For the sake of safety, Li Yu still went to the Danfang first, directly managed, and in the shortest time, he refined a few furnaces of the best detoxification pill, if there is no detoxification pill, he needs to use mana to maintain the protection of the whole body, which will consume a lot of mana.

The best Qi Returning Pill, Li Yu has also refined a few furnaces, the spiritual energy in the first-order secret realm is extremely thin, and there is no way to quickly replenish it from the outside world, and the Qi Returning Pill is also a must-have.

As a result, Li Yu was delayed for a long time.

During this period, he only hoped that he would not be eaten by the demon beasts of the Thousand Poison Caves that Sunday, and he would not be found by the disciples of other sects, and he must wait for him......

After getting ready, Li Yu and Zhou Zixuan said a word and left Kunlun alone.

Passing through the mountain gate, Li Yu saw that on the square in front of the mountain gate, there were several spirit boats, and some disciples of the ninth layer of qi refining gathered under the spirit boats, and on each spirit boat, there were at least two foundation building period elders.

"Fifty Tongmai Pills, the Heavenly Dao Sect is really generous, and our sect only rewards ten."

"Hehe, if I'm lucky enough to pick up that Zhou Tian's head, wouldn't it be sixty Tongmai Pills, and I can make the other two Daoists also cultivate to the peak of Qi refining."

"I'm different, I don't have a woman, I'm relaxed, sixty Tongmai Pills, handed over to the sect, how can I also exchange a few Zhuji Dan or Tuomai Dan to improve my cultivation?"

"You single dog, how do you know the happiness of having two Taoist couples?"

"I'm dedicated to the Immortal Dao, and I don't want to be affected by a woman's cultivation speed."

"You are sour, look at Senior Brother Li, not only was he not affected, but he also became the first person in the Qi Refining Period......"

……

Zhou Tian's traces, once they broke out, some of the disciples of the ninth layer of Qi refining in Kunlun couldn't sit still, it was fifty Tongmai Pills, even if they couldn't use it themselves, they would take it to the people around them, or they would directly hand it over to the sect to exchange for the Jidan Tongmai Pill, it would also be an unexpected resource.

For a while, many Qi Refining Nine Layers began to look for teammates and go to the Thousand Poison Cave to hunt Zhou Tian together.

After all, the Thousand Poison Cave is not an ordinary secret realm, there are many dangers in it, and they enter alone, unless they have the ability of Li Yu, even if it is the peak of qi refining, there is a risk of falling.

The safest thing is, of course, to find a few colleagues and walk together, so that although it is inevitable to be taken away from some Tongmai Dan, the safety can also be a little more guaranteed.

The Fa Cultivation Peaks, and even sent the elders of the foundation building period, using a spirit boat to carry the ninth-level disciples of Qi refining, escorting them all the way, sixty Tongmai Pills, the vast majority of the Yuanying Ancestors of the sect, they can't take out so much at one time, so naturally there will be many people who are excited.

Within a short period of time, a number of spirit boats and flying boats took off from Kunlun and headed straight for Nanzhao.
