Volume 1 Out of the Ring Chapter 30 Two first-year students on the fourth floor
On the third floor of the astrological tower, there are three circles of people. The age of the inner circle is about 20, most of them are second-grade, and the star power level is all eight-level and ninth-level starmen; in the middle circle, a few first-year, half second-year, seventh-level starmen; and almost all of the first-grade, fifth-level and sixth-level stars in the peripheral circle.
The three-circle level division determines the distribution of star power in this layer.
Li Xiangsheng, who was sitting on the edge, had a disgruntled face, and scolded in a low voice: "Why let us sit on the edge, they can sit in the middle, the academy does not stipulate that the second year in the astrological tower is more privileged than the first year." ”
Xia Jin on the side said calmly: "Strength determines the rank, our level is too low, and our strength is not enough, so we can only sit here." ”
"Although I only have level six, I must have no problem overturning those level seven. Li Xiangsheng was not convinced. He actually broke through the first level in these two days.
"But you can't do those eighth-level and nineth-level ones. Xia Jin said.
"Do you want to eat their leftovers like this?" Li Xiangsheng said angrily in a low voice.
"When our level cultivation comes up, we will naturally be able to take back the position that belongs to us. There was a flash of fire in Xia Jin's calm eyes.
"Hmph, I'll teach them a good lesson when the time comes. Xia Ying, the delicate girl beside Xia Jin, said angrily.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps, clearly audible in the quiet third floor.
Most of them couldn't help but turn their heads to look at the staircase on the second and third floors.
Ye Xing walked up to the third floor with a steady pace, and as soon as he came up, he saw a group of people staring at him, and he couldn't help but pause.
"Second-level Star Warrior, how did he come up?" Many people were stunned after seeing Ye Xing's star power level clearly.
"Hey, Ye Xing, here!" Li Xiangsheng stood up and beckoned to him. Ye Xing walked over with a smile.
As soon as Ye Xing approached, Li Xiangsheng said angrily to him: "Ye Xing, you really shouldn't come to this floor." It's all second-year here, and they have the best spots, and we can only absorb some star power on the edges. ”
"I saw it when I first came up from the second floor, and they were a bit overbearing. Ye Xing nodded.
"Then you still come up?" Li Xiangsheng looked at him suspiciously.
Ye Xing pointed to the staircase leading to the fourth floor in front of him, and said with a smile: "I'm going up." ”
Li Xiangsheng and the Xia family brothers and sisters looked at Ye Xing in shock, as if they felt that they had heard it wrong. Ye Xing patted Li Xiangsheng on the shoulder and continued to walk forward.
When he was halfway there, someone called out to him, and it turned out to be someone he knew.
"Hey, Ye Xing, you better go down and cultivate, there is no place for you here. In the inner circle, a young man in yellow looked at Ye Xing with mockery and said, it was Cao Lei, who was also in the first grade.
Ye Xing glanced at him and continued to walk, "There is no place here, but I am going to the fourth floor." ”
"What? are you going to the fourth layer?" Cao Lei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "You don't think that the top three can really enter the fourth layer, right? It's not me stopping you, if you absorb the star power of the fourth layer into your body, you will definitely die of blood." Don't do stupid things, go down quickly, and be self-aware. As he spoke, there was a look of sympathy in his eyes.
Ye Xing smiled, didn't speak again, and continued to walk forward.
Cao Lei saw that he didn't listen to the dissuasion, and snorted coldly, "I don't know how to lift, and I am killing myself." He waited to see Ye Xing being kicked out by the other second-graders, but found that the second-year students in the inner circle looked at Ye Xing thoughtfully, but they didn't open their mouths to stop him.
Cao Lei was stunned, could it be that those second-year students wanted Ye Xing to go up and die?
Ye Xing was also a little surprised that the other second-year students were not blocked, and then thought that it might be that Chen Yuqiong brought him to the fourth floor of the astrological tower yesterday and was seen by some people, and he was a little jealous.
Just as he guessed, several ninth-level star warriors in the inner circle exchanged in a low voice: "We don't have to pay attention to it, the person brought by Master Chen personally is definitely not ordinary, let him go." They sat cross-legged and practiced with their eyes closed.
In the astonished gaze of the other first-year-earners, Ye Xing stepped into the fourth layer.
originally thought that the fourth floor would be quieter, but after Ye Xing stepped in, he found that there was a lot of movement on this floor.
In the fourth layer, which is about fifty zhang wide, there are ten star power vortices of different sizes, and there is a figure in the center of the vortex, absorbing star power at an astonishing speed. Those were all second-year Grade 10 Star Warriors.
Ye Xing also found a corner and began to cultivate.
The star power was emanated, attached to the surface of the body, and Ye Xing began the rhythm of star power breathing. A three-foot-sized vortex of star power was formed, competing for the fourth layer of star power.
The third zhang gap in the star species was filling at a speed visible to the naked eye, but Ye Xing was still a little dissatisfied, he sensed that the star power of the fourth layer had been absorbed by more than a dozen star power vortices, and the star power he had absorbed was not as much as last time.
Ye Xing released all the star power in the star seed, wrapped his upper body, and increased the area of star power breathing. The star power vortex he was in also expanded outward, expanding by half a zhang. The star power he absorbed suddenly increased a lot, and he was only three inches away from the third-level star warrior.
An hour later, there was a soft sound from the star seed in Ye Xing's body, and he successfully broke through to the third-level star warrior.
Ye Xing was overjoyed, but instead of stopping absorbing star power, he increased his efforts and released all the star power of the third-level star warrior. The star power vortex expanded by another foot.
The other people in the whirlpool sensed Ye Xing's existence and frowned, but seeing that the speed at which he absorbed star power was not fast, they still continued their respective cultivations.
Another sound of footsteps came, and Ye Xing curiously released his perception and saw that it was him!
An emaciated young man in a light gray robe walked up from the staircase, a sword sheathed at his waist, and walked unhurriedly. His gaze swept around the four layers, stayed on Ye Xing's body for a while, and then walked to a corner not far from Ye Xing, sat down and prepared to cultivate.
Yun Jianyin sat cross-legged, the sword crossed his knee, holding the blade in his left hand and the hilt of the sword in his right hand, absorbing the star power. The star power in the tower quickly gathered, surging towards the sword in his hand, using the sword as a channel, which was absorbed into his body. Another vortex of star power was formed, expanding at an alarming rate.
Ye Xing was very surprised, he didn't expect Yun Jianyin to cultivate like this. That sword seemed to be special, capable of being used as a medium for absorbing star power.
It didn't take long for the star power vortex where Yun Jianyin was located to swell to one zhang, which was even more exaggerated than the seven-foot vortex that was the largest among the ten second-year students. Such a big movement alarmed several people, and they looked at Yun Jianyin in surprise, and exclaimed, "Who is this?"
Someone saw the sword on his knee and guessed, "Could it be that he is the wandering swordsman Yun Jianyin?"
"Yun Jianyin, how could he come to our academy?"
Ye Xing looked enviously at Yun Jianyin's whirlpool, if only he could absorb star power so quickly. He suddenly stopped absorbing the star power and sat in place pondering.
According to Chen Yuqiong, the Star Attraction Technique can speed up the traction of star power and assist in cultivation. Can I apply the Star Attraction Technique to the Star Power Breath to speed up the absorption of Star Power?
Ye Xing pondered the two key words: structure and rhythm. Which star force structure is suitable for star force breathing? Ye Xing's mind quickly recalled the book "Outline of Star Force Structure" that he had read yesterday, and the introduction of various star force structures passed by, and he soon locked on one: spiral structure.
The spiral structure is inspired by the vortex and is an advanced version of the rotating structure. Through the three-dimensional rotational movement, a huge suction force is generated, and the star force in the maximum range is condensed.
The star power on the surface of the leaf star changed, and it was divided into four parts, each of which began to spiral. Four small spiral-shaped vortices appeared on the surface of the leaf star, absorbing star power in four directions. Although the size of the star power vortex has decreased, the speed at which it absorbs star power has not decreased.
Next is the rhythm, Ye Xing's perception goes deep into the four spiral vortices, controlling the star power in them. Under the control of perception, Ye Xing's own star force simulates the shape and movement characteristics of the external star force. Soon, the two star powers almost fused into one, and there was no difference to be seen. The star power of the outside world seemed to have found its kind, and it quickly surged towards the four spiral vortices on the surface of Ye Xing's body.
With Ye Xing's body as the central container, and four spiral vortices as the funnel mouth, the star power of the four layers of the astrological tower poured into it like a flood, and a four-foot star power vortex was formed around Ye Xing's body. The star seed in Ye Xing's body flickered with light, covered by a large amount of star power, and the star seed absorbed the rich star power to the fullest.
This movement immediately woke up the cultivation of the rest of the people, and they saw that although the star power vortex here was only four feet, the speed of absorbing star power was far beyond them, only inferior to the cloud sword chant in the center of the vortex.
The star power in the four-story tower decreased rapidly, half of it was divided among the ten second grades, and half was actually divided equally between Ye Xing and Yun Jianyin.
"That guy is only a third-level star warrior!" a man couldn't help but exclaim after seeing Ye Xing in the center of the vortex.
"What, how can a third-level star warrior absorb the star power of the fourth layer?" The rest of the people all looked at Ye Xing in disbelief, shocked.
A woman suddenly said, "If this continues, the star power within these four layers will soon be absorbed by the two of them." ”
Ten people returned to their senses, but they were all at the critical stage of breaking through the star warrior and advancing to the junior star officer. "No, if we let them absorb it like this, we won't even have to drink the soup. They glanced at each other and walked in the direction of Ye Xing and Yun Jianyin.
"Hey, first-graders, you guys stop me!"
Ye Xing was enjoying the bathing of the Star Power Ocean when he suddenly heard a shout with anger. He reluctantly stopped absorbing star power, and looked at the ten people in front of him with a displeased face.
Yun Jianyin also spread out a whirlpool of star power, and stood up unhurriedly, his sword hanging from his waist, and looked at the ten people with an expressionless face.
The ten of them were all wearing fiery red academy uniforms, they were twenty-five or sixteen years old, and the first one had a broad face, a slightly cold complexion, with pride, and said in a questioning tone: "You two have cultivated like this, and have absorbed all the star power, how can we cultivate?"
"Absorbing star power is all up to your own ability, who is to blame for your own slow absorption?" Ye Xing said confidently.
The man in charge glanced at Ye Xing and Yun Jianyin, and said in a deep voice: "We don't occupy it either, one of the two of you can stay, and the other must go down." Who goes and who stays, you decide for yourselves"
Ye Xing looked at him with righteous words, and chuckled: "Ten to one is not a dominance, this senior is really benevolent." ”
"Don't be ignorant, I gave you the opportunity, it's up to you whether you want it or not. The man looked at Yun Jianyin and said, "Yun Jianyin, if you drive him down, we will allow you to cultivate at this fourth layer." ”
Yun Jianyin, who had been silent, put the sword on his waist horizontally in front of him, looked at the ancient and intricate patterns on it, didn't look at the man, and said in a flat tone: "No wonder you can only stay on this layer." ”
The faces of the ten people changed, and the man in the lead glared at him, "What do you mean?"
Yun Jianyin withdrew his gaze from the sword, glanced at the ten people, and said, "What qualifications do you have to allow me?"
The ten people were furious, they didn't expect this Yun Jianyin to be so arrogant, and they all scolded angrily: "Yun Jianyin, don't think that having the name of 'Wandering Swordsman' can be blind to no one, we are all tenth-level star warriors, join forces, and the little star official can only retreat." ”
Yun Jianyin only spat out one sentence: "The rabble." ”
The ten people were immediately furious, and the star power on their bodies was stimulated, ready to make a move.
The leader man stepped forward, "I want to see what capital you have so arrogantly." Even so, he didn't dare to take it lightly, the person in front of him was a wandering swordsman who was rumored to have killed Xiao Xingguan.
The broad-faced man took out a crimson star scepter from his arms, and the fiery red star power poured into it, the star scepter lit up all over, and the star scepter at the top was even more red. A large number of red flames erupted from it, forming a five-foot-sized firebird in the air. Under the continuous infusion of star power by the man, the firebird rapidly increased in size, and finally reached the size of one zhang, hanging in the air, its wings fluttering, and the heat wave burst.
"Advanced Astrology - Firebird!"
"It's Senior He Chong's signature stunt!"
The firebird flew towards the cloud sword and groaned as if it was about to be burned in the midst of everyone's exclamation.
Ye Xing looked at the mighty firebird, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he was a little worried about Qiyun Sword.
Yun Jianyin, who was standing with a sword, looked at the firebird flying towards him with a calm face, took a step back with his right foot, raised the sword with the scabbard in his right hand, and his whole body bent in an obvious arc, like a taut and charged bow.
The firebird flew closer, and his face was already feeling the blazing heat. Yun Jianyin didn't have the slightest nervousness, and his body suddenly exerted force, stabbing out a sword at an extremely fast speed, leaving an afterimage.
The dark golden light was flourishing, condensing into a narrow sword and piercing into the firebird's body. But in an instant, the sword burst out of the fire. The firebird disintegrated and disintegrated less than half a foot away from Yun Jianyin, scattering into a firework.
When everyone was shocked by the firebird's disintegration, the dark gold sword swept towards the broad-faced man with unabated speed. His eyes shrank, and he only had time to place the star scepter horizontally in front of him, and the sword was coming. With a crisp sound, the sword sliced into the star scepter like a sharp blade, quickly passing through, penetrating the right arm of the man behind the star scepter.
The body of the crimson star scepter shattered directly, and the star stone fell to the ground. A clump of blood burst out from the man's right arm, surging straight outward.
The wide-faced man screamed, his left hand covering his right arm, and star power poured out, trying his best to plug the wound. He looked at Yun Jianyin in horror, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
How could he be so strong?
The nine people behind him all turned pale and looked flustered. Unexpectedly, Senior Brother He was seriously injured by Yun Jianyin's sword when he was performing advanced star arts. How strong is he? Is he really as rumored to be, invincible below the Little Star Officer?
Yun Jianyin's sword intimidated the other nine people, and they were overwhelmed for a while.
"If I don't dare to make another move, then I will continue to cultivate. Yun Jianyin looked at them and said.
"Let's go!" the wide-faced man endured the pain in his right arm and said to the nine.
The nine people hurriedly helped him and walked to the lower floor. When he passed by Yun Jianyin's side, he didn't dare to take a look, and quickly left. Only Yun Jianyin and Ye Xing were left in the fourth layer.
Ye Xing was a little dumbfounded, this was cleared by Yun Jianyin alone? He said to Yun Jianyin, "Thank you." ”
Yun Jianyin didn't respond, his emotionless eyes looked up and down Ye Xing's body, and whispered, "Refining Star Cultivation." He walked to the middle and sat down, and began to absorb the star power.
Ye Xing's face stiffened, and he muttered, "Is it so indifferent?" He pondered Yun Jianyin's whisper: "Body refining star cultivation, is he talking about me? When did I refine my body?" But Master Chen also said that my physique is amazing, this is the reason why I can absorb the fourth layer of star power. ”
Shaking his head, he didn't think much about it and continued to cultivate.
