Li Xu has reached the ninth level of qi refining, and although he can resist the sword, he consumes great spiritual power.

In order to preserve his spiritual power, Li Xu could only speed up his pace.

By the time he arrived at the main peak, it was already an hour later.

Here is a fairy atmosphere, a spiritual spring stream.

The pavilions on the mountain, the cranes flying.

Around the main peak, there are many rare birds and beasts.

It is also a place for inner disciples and core disciples to practice.

The outer disciples and miscellaneous disciples are only able to come here on this day a year.

On weekdays, they are not allowed to enter.

By the time Li Xu arrived, the mountain was already overcrowded, with at least sixty or seventy thousand people gathered.

Ninety percent of them are miscellaneous disciples from the four peaks of the outer courtyard, and the other one percent is a disciple of the outer sect.

"There are a lot more people participating in the big competition today than last year!"

"But no, our sect has recruited a lot of miscellaneous disciples this year, and there are naturally a lot more people."

"There are more people, and the competition is bigger, and the number of places to enter the outer gate is only 100."

"No, I heard that this year's number of places in the outer door has increased by fifty people.

I heard that our sect and the Cold Moon Sect are competing for the spirit mine.

It is necessary to cultivate more outer disciples and go to the outside spirit mining area to garrison. ”

“……”

Li Xu listened to the discussions of his peers around him and walked forward quietly.

The Cold Moon Sect he knew, the Dongzhou region, the same famous sect as their Immortal Sect.

It can be said that in the entire Eastern Continent, only the Cold Moon Sect can compete with their Immortal Sect.

The two sects, although they signed an agreement of mutual non-aggression.

But this is only limited to the Jindan Realm and the powerhouses above.

Disciples below the Jindan realm are not restricted.

So petty fights continue, and bloody fights also happen from time to time.

Especially in the competition for some ownerless spirit mines, there will be shopping from time to time.

Both sides also suffered casualties.

As for how many places will be added to the outer disciples this time, Li Xu doesn't care.

If Li Xu wanted to enter the outer gate, he could easily enter by showing his cultivation to the Good Gong Hall directly.

But Li Xu didn't want to.

What he wanted was to enter the inner door.

Moreover, he had to take the rank of the great test and enter the inner gate openly.

Because the cultivation resources of the inner gate are ten times that of the outer disciples.

If you get a place in the big competition, there will be a very generous reward.

Last year, the first place was rewarded with a medium-grade spirit stone and 300 low-grade spirit stones.

If Li Xu gets this ranking this year, he will get these rewards.

Li Xu was able to rely on these spirit stone rewards to build a foundation steadily.

It can even expand the spiritual pool spring water in the dantian space, helping Qinglian grow some and better temper her body.

Li Xu stood in the crowd, quietly waiting for the start of the big competition.

Because he came relatively late, he only waited for a stick of incense, and there was movement on the main peak.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed;

"Look, it's a crane."

"The elder has come down the mountain."

"Dabi is about to begin."

“……”

With a cacophony of voices rang out.

Li Xu saw that an immortal crane suddenly flew down from the top of the mountain.

Behind him were eight young men and women with flying swords on their feet.

Above the crane, there is a white-haired old man holding a dusty hand.

Li Xu glanced at it and recognized the person.

This is the Inner Gate Elder, Yuan and Zhenren.

Its cultivation has reached the late stage of Jindan, and its strength is quite terrifying.

Once when Li Xu was at the inner door, he was also instructed by the other party one or two.

Behind him, the young men and women, all wearing blue and white robes, are inner disciples.

One of them is a confidante who used to be good friends with Li Xu, Lan Caier.

After a while, Elder Yuanhe came to the bottom of the mountain in a crane and suspended it at a height of thirty meters.

Behind him, Lan Cai'er and the other eight inner disciples were all suspended behind them with flying swords.

Tens of thousands of disciples below all looked up, excited.

In the eyes, all worship the color of yearning......

The crane flapped its wings.

Elder Yuanhe sat quietly on the back of the crane.

Eight inner disciples, two columns on the left and right, lined up at the moment.

"It's Elder Yuanhe."

"That's right, the last time I preached outside the door, it was Elder Yuanhe who came to teach.

Its cultivation has reached the middle stage of Jindan, and the longevity has exceeded 500 years. ”

"Behind them are all inner disciples, that one I know, Lan Cai'er.

We were recruited into the sect together.

It's a pity that ten years have passed, and I'm still a miscellaneous disciple.

However, she became the pride of the inner sect and was known as the most potential genius in the sect. ”

“……”

The surrounding people were full of voices and excitement.

At this time, a young disciple of the inner sect suddenly shouted loudly:

"Silence!"

The voice was not loud, but under the transmission of his strong spiritual power, the voice spread throughout the valley.

The sixty or seventy thousand people under the mountain instantly fell silent.

Yuan and Zhenren, who were sitting on the back of the crane, listened to the scene and was quiet, so they slowly opened their eyes.

A deep gaze swept down the mountain.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he stretched out his voice and said:

"Wuhua Tianbao, the ruins of the dragon light shooting bullfight.

I am the Immortal Sect, and I am an outstanding person.

This year, I hope that all the disciples will do their best.

It is now divided into two big competitions.

In the first game, who can hold on to ten breaths under the deterrence of the spirit beads can clear the customs. ”

As he spoke, Yuan and Zhenren spread out their palms.

A red orb has appeared in the palm of his hand.

The orb emitted a red light, and even if Li Xu was far away, he could feel the cold feeling.

And under the mountain, it exploded in an instant.

"Spirit Beads?"

"What's that?"

"I don't know?"

"Ten breaths isn't long?"

"Yes, no matter what beads he is, even if we bite off our tongues, we have to hold on, it's just ten breaths, and it's over soon."

“……”

The people around them spoke one after another, and they were also discussing countermeasures with each other.

Only Li Xu, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

He used to be an inner disciple, so he naturally knew about this spirit bead.

That's the natal magic weapon of Yuan and Zhenren.

It has the power of a powerful regent.

If you do it with all your might, let alone everyone present.

Even if it is a foundation building monk, he may not be able to hold on to the ten breaths.

Yuan and Zhenren didn't explain much.

The first big competition is basically a large-scale elimination of contestants.

At the moment, he was just sitting on top of the crane.

shouted to the bottom:

"The first game of the big competition, the start of the ......"
