Chapter 53: The Battle of Cards

Following.

Li Shuidao, Li Shuilong and other seven disciples entered the ancestral hall together to worship their ancestors.

After the worship is over.

Li Tianliang took them and set off again.

Seven or eight days later......

The cave of the Sea Snake Dao people.

Seven young monks from the Li family gathered.

Li Tianwu, a sea snake Taoist in a black robe, smiled and asked them about their harvest in the past six months.

Everyone talked about how gentle and virtuous their lady was, and the corners of their mouths unconsciously overflowed with smiles.

In the clearing in the valley, there was a huge Gu cultivation case, and all kinds of elixirs and spirit grasses were placed on the side of the table. The Sea Snake Daoist pointed to the precious cultivation resources on the side of the case, and said in an impassioned voice: "The sect trial is like raising Gu, the earlier you participate, the easier it is to obtain meritorious deeds. And half of the merit must be paid to the family, and this merit is very important to the family, if there is no family, how can you ......"

Li Tianwu swept everyone's expressions when he said this, and the people present all took it for granted, and no one expressed dissatisfaction.

"You can keep the rest of the merits for your own use, the merit transaction must go through the sect auditorium, and it can only be traded on the premise of voluntariness, no one can force you, you can use the merits in exchange for the cultivation resources of the sect, you can also use it to exchange for other treasures, and you can even use it in exchange for the favor of the elders of the sect......"

The faces of the seven monks all flashed with excitement, they had already heard the rumors of the sect's trial, and knew that this was an opportunity to show their strength, compete for glory, and quickly improve their strength.

Li Tianwu's eyes swept over the seven monks, and said with a smile: "When you get the same ginseng, it is the early stage of the psychic realm, in this realm, you can awaken one or two simultaneous spiritual powers, no mana, whether it is martial arts or Taoism, you can't cultivate, this realm is fast for one year, slow for five years, and you can pass through without bottlenecks......"

"In the middle stage of the psychic realm, then your body will be able to breed mana, so that you can practice the Dao Method, in this realm, you fight against people, basically still rely on personal martial arts and divine channel methods, this realm is fast for ten years, slow for thirty years, and there is no bottleneck in this realm......"

"In the late stage of the psychic realm, your fellow staff will grow to the first order, awaken the powerful poisonous cloud supernatural power, in this realm, you will fight against people, as soon as you make a move, the poisonous cloud will be monstrous, you will have to cultivate in this realm for at least twenty years, and more will be stuck in the bottleneck, and will never be promoted......"

"If it takes five years in the early stage of the psychic realm, and another thirty years in the middle of the psychic realm, the age will be close to fifty, and there is no chance to break through to the Rongling realm before the age of sixty......

"Therefore, we must be brave and diligent in our practice! The psychic realm is the water mill kung fu, there is no bottleneck, as long as you eat more Qi Pill to accumulate mana, and the same ginseng devours more spiritual objects to accumulate demon power, you and the same ginseng can eat together to quickly advance, during this period, you must participate in more trials, only in this way can you have the pill to eat, and the same ginseng to have spiritual things to eat......"

"The family rules stipulate that you must participate in a sect trial before you are eighteen years old," Li Tianwu said in a deep voice, his eyes full of sparks of challenge.

"The sect has rules for trials, especially the ring battle, which is a competition between peers. The age difference between those who participate in the trial is no more than three years. Only those who are not afraid of life and death and dare to take risks can get real opportunities for growth. Li Tianwu continued to say impassionedly, and he wanted to let them participate in the trial earlier.

Hearing this, some young people suddenly jumped to try, and their eyes flashed with determination. Li Shuidao, on the other hand, had a solemn expression and thought with a frown.

"It's too early to participate in the trial, our martial arts and Dao methods haven't been honed yet, and it's easy to die in the trial," Li Shuidao's voice revealed a hint of worry.

Li Tianwu looked back at Li Shuidao, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "Don't look ahead!" Shui Dao, you have already broken through to the middle stage of the psychic realm in just one year after obtaining the same ginseng, you should know the benefits of letting the same ginseng devour spiritual objects, not to mention that it is a family requirement to participate in a sect trial before the age of eighteen. Think about your family, think about your wives and children, and think about what your family has done to you over the years. We can't back down, we can only move forward! “

Among the seven, only Li Shuilong was silent, and his face was very pale.

The others went to the trial, and there was still a chance to live, but he was certain to die, and he did not even participate.

Two years later, he turned eighteen years old, when he had no mana, no Taoism, and could only rely on pure martial arts, take a knife or a sword, and fight for life and death with his love for his parents and relatives, and love for his wife......

"The simplest trial of the sect is the age stage of fifteen to eighteen years old, commonly known as the card wrestling battle, which is held once a year, and the rules are very simple...... If you have confidence, you can sign up more, the trial is to raise Gu, the sooner you participate, the better, the more you participate, the stronger your combat power, the more you can stand out and become a real powerhouse......"

"Waterways...... You've been looking forward to it in the Psychic Realm for half a year, but do you have the confidence to sign up for this year's sect trial? Li Tianwu, a Sea Snake Daoist, asked with a smile.

Li Shuidao hesitated slightly: "Tianwu Shibo, although I am eager to participate in the sect trial as soon as possible, show my strengths, and make a long face for the family, but now I have just turned sixteen years old, and the Dao method I have cultivated has not yet achieved a small success, and I may face the danger of dying prematurely if I participate in the card wrestling battle." I decided to wait until I was eighteen years old to fight, and then I would definitely cultivate to a higher realm and meet the challenge with my strongest strength. ”

Li Tianwu listened: "Shuidao, you are really cautious." However, although the wrestling battle is the simplest sect trial, it is also very cruel, and most of the people who participate in the trial are eighteen-year-olds, but those who can really survive are often those who are younger. ”

Li Shuidao smiled faintly.

If you are young and dare to participate in the sect trial, what does that mean?

Illustrate the ruthlessness!

Since the means are ruthless, of course he can survive to the end.

It's called survivorship bias!

Although Li Shuidao has a solid foundation, he lacks offensive and defensive Dao skills after all, especially the "Ice Heart and Blue Water Sword" has not yet been refined.

Or wait a little longer......

Two years later, he participated in the sect trial at the age of eighteen and completed the hard tasks of the family.

After all, parents and relatives are in the family, so they really can't be left alone.

"Well, if you change your mind, you can go to the Sect Trial Hall to sign up in two months, after all, the opportunity to wrestle is rare, if you can participate in two more times, you will definitely gain a lot...... Li Tianwu said very regretfully.

Li Shuidao smiled and said no more.

Following.

Li Tianliang took Li Shuidao to the cave of the golden-faced Langjun.

In the main hall.

Li Shuidao presented the gift he had prepared to Shizun: a long sword.

This sword was originally Lin Yunzhi's waist sword, although it was not a non-weapon, but the workmanship was extremely sophisticated, and the sword body was engraved with delicate patterns, like flowing ripples.

It represents Li Shuidao's respect and gratitude to the golden-faced Langjun.

As the so-called etiquette is not to blame......

The golden-faced Langjun took the gift, smiled and praised: "This sword is really exquisite, I have received your heart." ”

Li Shuidao hurriedly said: "This is the duty that you should do as a disciple. ”

"Hmm......" The golden-faced Langjun nodded with satisfaction: "Since you have reached the middle stage of the psychic realm and have mana, then follow me to practice the Dao method tomorrow." ”

"Thank you, Master!" Li Shuidao was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
