Chapter 109: Nine Levels

As soon as the news of the Qing Ming Sword was announced, it caused a huge sensation in the dojo.

For most of the next half of the day, the masters who were ready to sign up began to prepare for the cloudy day of the sword. Some stepped up their practice in an attempt to sharpen their guns; some were busy calculating potential competitors and connecting them everywhere; of course, there were also those who were not familiar with the Qingying Sword and began to collect all kinds of information early.

When the snow stopped at noon, the attendants in Tsing Yi also began to be busy clearing the snow to make room for the overcast sword.

For a while, the entire dojo was busy.

In contrast, although Lu Chengfeng also cared, he was much more indifferent. First, he was confident in his own strength, and second, what he desperately wanted, it was useless for ordinary martial artists to take it. Therefore, even if you can't get the first place due to various factors, as long as you can get a good ranking, it is still very likely to get it.

The heavenly treasure that he fancied was called Taixu Ice Lotus!

This thing can greatly improve the affinity of the human body to the ice element. In the first few hours after taking the drug, it also has the ability to protect the human body from cold and frostbite. It can be said that it is a holy product for martial artists who cultivate the fighting spirit of the corresponding element.

The Heavenly Wind Dou Qi that Lu Chengfeng is cultivating now is just an excessive exercise that has been deleted and modified. After breaking through the fifth order, what he was really preparing to major in was the Infinite Frost Technique, which was known as the Infinite Frost Technique that was fighting with the Heavenly Wind back then. This super technique of 108 Dou Qi is an out-and-out Frost Elemental Dou Qi. Lu Chengfeng had seen this exercise before he was reborn, and although he had forgotten most of the specific steps of cultivating the Infinite Frost Technique, he still vaguely remembered its purpose after seeing the name Taixu Ice Lotus.

What is certain is that when transferring to the Infinite Frost Technique, with the assistance of the Taixu Ice Lotus, you can definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

It is related to the future of his own life, and Lu Chengfeng is naturally determined to win it!

Thankfully, the Elemental Dou Qi is a relatively rare high-end item, and the Ice Elemental Dou Qi of the limited series is even rarer. At the very least, in this Qingying Dojo, Lu Chengfeng didn't see anyone cultivating the Ice Fighting Qi Technique. It is precisely for this reason that Lu Chengfeng feels that he is very sure that he can get it.

This should be considered a rainy day......

In anticipation, Lu Chengfeng spent another night in the thatched house. Then, before dawn the next day, when the morning mountain fog was still wet and cold, he was woken up by the noise of others. Obviously, many swordsmen can't wait to get up and prepare to participate in today's Qingying Sword.

After finishing the morning class with a normal heart, Lu Chengfeng simply ate some breakfast sent by the attendant, then tidied up and walked out.

At this time, the Tsing Yi attendants in the dojo had already set up some arrangements, and the ten Tsing Yi guards were already standing in full armor. In the center of the martial arts training ground, dozens of swordsmen who were ready to participate in the sword debate had also gathered. Some of them have serious faces, some are eager to try, some are excited, and some are excited with a little worry. What's more, with some dark circles under the eyes, it is estimated that I stayed up all night last night!

After all, the reward for this sword discussion is too rich, so that it is difficult for people who are indifferent to fame and fortune not to be moved.

Probably because of his own identity, the sword master of the dojo did not come forward in person today, but sent one of his disciples to preside. That disciple was also dressed in a green robe, and his strength was about the seventh order. It's not the strongest in the field, but it's enough to outperform most people. For the sake of his master's ninth-order master, many martial artists present also gave him enough face.

After he also arrived, the first test of the Qing Ying Sword began.

Compared to yesterday, there were twenty or thirty more people in the Qingying Dojo overnight. These people who came to run for the Qing Ying Theory Sword had a very good background, and even the sword master of the dojo had to give face to the people behind them. However, when you come back, as long as you participate in this sword discussion, you must follow the rules like everyone else. Therefore, their appearance only makes the competition more intense, which is pressure for those who are not confident, but it is indifferent for Lu Chengfeng.

"The registration is complete, and a total of seventy-seven people participate in the ring battle of the sword. Among them, there are seventy-four martial artists above the sixth order, and three below the sixth order. Today is the first battle of the ring battle, only the top ten masters will be decided, and the cloud day will be the decisive battle. Another forty-six people participated in the trial, all of whom were martial artists below the sixth order. The venue of the trial is located in the mountain behind the Qingying Mountain, and the content will be announced in an hour. ”

The content of the trial is determined by the sword master of the dojo every year, and although it is true that there are repetitions, it is unrealistic to want to be completely prepared for everything.

As he spoke, some Tsing Yi guards had already gone up and started to call for lots, ready to assign opponents to the ring battle. Lu Chengfeng, who was not told the content, headed towards the back mountain of Qingming Mountain under the leadership of a Tsing Yi attendant. Obviously, the exact content of the trial will not be announced until it gets there.

Although Qingming Mountain is not too high, it is more than 1,300 meters long. Although all the martial artists present were fourth- and fifth-order martial artists, it still took nearly an hour to arrive. The dojo's grasp of time is obviously very accurate.

"Is this the back mountain?"

Seeing a completely different scene from Qingying Mountain, many swordsmen who participated in the sword debate for the first time began to discuss curiously.

As the main passage up and down the mountain, the front mountain of Qingming Mountain is a sea of bamboo, elegant and beautiful. On the winding mountain road to the top of the mountain, there are no magical beasts except for a few cute little animals. On the mountainside, it is shrouded in mist all year round. Whenever there is a mountain breeze blowing, the scene on the top of the mountain is looming, and there is a kind of elegant fairy air.

It's different in the back mountains.

There are no bamboo forests that can be cultivated, but natural forests instead. There are no specially built stone steps on the mountain, but a rugged mountain road that has been stepped on. Yesterday's snow made the already difficult mountain road even more slippery and dangerous. Above the mountainside, the fog is also thicker and more gloomy than that of the mountain in front. In the forest, there are even more dangerous monsters that the front mountains do not have. Although the people of the dojo will clean it regularly every year to ensure that there are no monsters that are too strong here. But even the newly wandering fourth- and fifth-order demonic beasts could still pose a great threat to them in such an environment!

This is the trial part of the Sword of the Pure Soul - there is fighting, there is competition, and there is danger. If you are not careful, it is really possible to die!

Although the people of the Qing Ying Dojo will use as many protective means as possible, there have often been unexpected casualties in the previous sword discussions. In many cases, four or five people can be killed or injured in a single trial.

This really scared a lot of people. There are a few people who are timid and afraid of death, and there is even a hesitation on their faces, and they begin to consider whether to quit. However, Lu Chengfeng was aroused by this real competition. He took the initiative to stand in front of the crowd, secretly looking at the competitors while waiting for the host to announce the specific content.

The presiding officer of the dojo didn't make them wait too long.

About five minutes later, after confirming that all the people who participated in the trial had arrived, another disciple of the sword master jumped on a boulder next to him and said loudly: "It's the Nine Levels of the Green Shadow!"

"It's actually the Nine Levels of the Green Darkness!" someone who had participated in it suddenly frowned.

"Oh no, this is one of the hardest trials. I just don't know, which level was drawn?" and the friends around the man also chimed in.

Of course, there are also people who don't understand it at all and ask in confusion: "Nine passes, which nine passes, who can say yin?"

In the chaos, someone stood up and asked loudly: "The Nine Levels of the Green Shadow, could it be that we are going to participate in all the Nine Levels test?"

The host of the green robe had a cold look in his eyes, nodded to him, and said, "Yes, it's all the nine level tests!"

His words immediately caused an uproar in the crowd. Lu Chengfeng heard it clearly, many people were complaining about the difficulty in surprise, and the other part of them were not the truth and followed the coaxing. But no matter what, this trial of the Nine Levels of the Green Darkness seems to be quite difficult.

"What's the noise!" The uproar of the people below made the host very dissatisfied, and he snorted coldly and said, "This year is the hundredth Qingying Sword, and for this reason, the sword master of the dojo has prepared a super high-level reward. Since the prize has become better, naturally, the difficulty of this trial should also be increased accordingly. ”

His explanation did not quell the dissatisfaction of the people present, and a few of them even protested directly.

Seeing that things seemed to be a little out of control, the seventh-order host was annoyed and shouted angrily: "Shut up!" This is the Sword Master's personal explanation, if anyone is dissatisfied, they can quit now, or go to the Sword Lord to ask for clarification." Come, let me see, who are they?"

Being scolded by him like this, the forty or fifty swordsmen who participated in the trial immediately shut up.

Having said that, naturally no one dares to express dissent. As for withdrawing from the trial, they are only shouting on their lips, but in fact they are reluctant. After all, the rewards are so generous this time. Even if there's only one chance, they don't mind giving it a go. If you get a good reputation, you're done!

Seeing that all the people present were quiet, the host continued with a grimace: "Of course, Lord Sword Master is not unreasonable. This Nine Levels of the Green Shadow is indeed a bit difficult for you. Therefore, as long as you can pass any of the five levels, you will be considered to have passed the passing line. If there are more people crossing the line, the less time it takes to reach the top of the mountain, and the more levels they have passed, the higher the ranking. If you can pass all nine levels, you will get an additional chance to choose a priority prize!"

"Wow!"

These words, especially the last sentence, made the dissatisfaction in everyone's hearts disappear and be replaced by extreme excitement. In itself, if you get the fame of the winner, you can get a chance to be drawn first. Now, if you pass the nine levels, you can choose another treasure. For those present, such a temptation was simply hard to resist.

Almost instantly, the fighting spirit of the contestants was completely aroused!
