Chapter Twenty-Four: The Spirit Sword Arrives, and the Great Comparison Begins
The imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty
The Li family in the early morning also became more lively at this time because of this matter, and the internal personnel were transferred very frequently.
I saw Li Haotian, the head of the Li family, at this time there was a long roar, and several men in gold armor suddenly appeared in front of him, and knelt down.
"The Golden Scale Guard team has come to report and ask the sect master to give an order"
The Golden Scale Guard is the force on Li Jiaming's face, and the lowest cultivation of all the members of the Golden Scale Guard is also the early stage of the tribulation.
Higher, if it is the position of captain, it is only the personnel who need to cross the peak of the tribulation to be competent, and this Golden Scale Guard is only loyal to the patriarch.
They were the sharpest spears in the hands of the patriarchs.
"Li Chen, you quickly take people to the Treasure Pavilion of the headquarters, receive the materials, and then take the spirit boat to set off quickly, this is the destination of your trip and the materials you need to receive, ask to hand over the stains to the other party before 12 o'clock this morning, and return smoothly with 2 million medium-grade spirit stones, if anyone stops you on the road, you will be killed. ”
"Remember, it must be delivered at the agreed time, otherwise you will see you in the head. ”
"Yes, Patriarch's Order"
After speaking, I saw that the person named Li Chen in the leader immediately disappeared, and the other Golden Scale Guards who followed also disappeared.
At this time, the many spies lurking in the Li family also reported everything they had just seen to the leaders of the various families.
Li Haotian may not know about this, or maybe he already knows about the spies, but he has not revealed it.
Li Haotian showed a meaningful smile and turned to enter the study.
"Report ...... The Li family dispatched the Golden Scale Guard late at night, and they have already left the imperial capital, and their current whereabouts cannot be determined."
And reports like this have been received by many families in the imperial capital at this time.
But most of them didn't do anything.
Just silently recorded this incident.
Li Chen came to the Treasure Pavilion, and after receiving the supplies, he immediately led his subordinates to take the spirit boat and set off for the destination.
Although I was very puzzled, why at this time, I went to that remote place in the north, and I also led such a large amount of supplies.
What made him even more puzzled was: "Why did the patriarch attach so much importance to this transaction, not only sending himself and the Golden Scale Guard, but also setting the time, all of which made him curious." ”
But as a qualified captain of the guard, he knows deeply what he can know and what he can't.
The imperial capital is tens of millions of kilometers away from Lingyun Sect in the north.
Even if you take the spirit boat, according to the fastest speed, it can be reached just before noon.
"Full speed ahead, pay attention to perimeter safety, and make sure to complete this mission. ”
"Yes...... Captain ......," the Golden Scale Guard underneath responded.
At this time, Liu Tianling, who was far away in Lingyun Sect, and all the elders, as well as Dugu Bo and Qian Duo, were all waiting for the news of the Treasure Pavilion, and after receiving a confirmed reply from the other party, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Since this is the case, then tomorrow we will hold a big competition of the sect, just hold it simply, let the disciples compare and compare, my sect has not rewarded the disciples for a long time. Dugu Bo also had a smile on his face at this time.
After all, the matter is over, the apprentice's life has been saved, and the strength of the sect has improved a lot.
"That's not right, sect master, if you hold a big competition, it will be too late, everything else is easy to say, but those 30 high-grade spirit swords, there is no time to hand them over to the disciples before 12 o'clock, after all, even if it is so simple, it will not be able to distinguish the superiority from the big competition for a day." As the pavilion master with the highest income this time, although Sun Bin was happy, he still expressed his worries.
"Uh...... What can I do? Isn't my apprentice's life hanging in the balance?" Dugu Bo, who was still very happy, cried again.
"Apprentice, apprentice, what do you say?"
"It's very simple, don't be afraid, let's distribute the spirit sword directly in advance according to the level of cultivation of the participating disciples, isn't it okay" Qian Duo was not very worried, after all, he had already thought of this situation, even if Sun Bin Pavilion Master didn't say it, he would remind him.
"That's not right, if it goes down first, the disciple's strength will be even stronger, so won't the disciples behind have no chance?" As the cabinet master of the Diplomatic and Legal Affairs Pavilion who had more thoughts, Quan Ling also put forward his own views at this time.
"Just don't let them use it, so there are two benefits, one is to send it down first, to those disciples who are slightly higher in cultivation, so that they can stimulate their arrogance, and they will do their best in order to reward, and the second is that those disciples who have not obtained the spirit sword will definitely not be able to get used to those disciples who have obtained the zero sword, so that it can also stimulate the fighting spirit of the disciples, after all, the spirit sword is only temporarily distributed to the disciples with higher cultivation, not theirs, everyone has a chance, so that the problem of time is solved, and the blood of the disciples can be more aroused. Qian Duo explained as he waved his hand.
"Okay, then follow this method" Dugu Bo, as the sect master, also gave an order at this time.
When the time came to 7 o'clock in the morning, the sky had just revealed a glimmer of light, and the entire Lingyun Sect was lively.
"Have you heard? I received a notice in the morning, and the sect competition will be held in the morning, and as long as the disciples who have reached the Jindan cultivation level can all sign up to participate. One of the disciples whispered.
"Your news is outdated, I heard that this big competition not only has a high-grade spirit sword, but also more than thirty of them, and the more exciting thing is that the prizes will be issued in advance. Another disciple said
"Isn't that a fixed decision?"
"Fart, what do you know, when did my Lingyun Sect decide, this time it was the spirit sword that came first, and then it was not allowed to be used during the big competition, think about it, if the disciple of the spirit sword that got it in advance lost, it would be a big shame. So I guess this time Dabi must be super super bloody and exciting. ”
"But fortunately, the sect stipulates that no one is allowed to hurt people's lives during the competition, and the punishment is very heavy, and even expelled from the sect. Otherwise, this time Dabi may really have a senior brother and younger brother die. ”
"Are you going to sign up?"
"No, no...... Go to ......"
"I've only been building the foundation, and I'm not delivering food yet," a tiger-headed disciple said innocently
"That's it, I won't go, although I have reached the Jindan stage, but I am still a beginner, so I won't be ashamed. ”
At this time, Li Chen, the Golden Scale Guard, who was rushing to the Lingyun Sect, had already traveled most of the distance at this time.
The speed of the spirit boat flying at full speed can already catch up with the speed of the monk at the peak of the tribulation, and of course, the spirit stones consumed are also huge.
After all, to maintain this speed, the consumption of spirit stones is still not small, so under normal circumstances, the spirit boat will not move forward at full speed.
But this time it was different, Li Haotian gave a death order, so Li Chen and the others had to move forward at full speed.
"Fortunately, I was able to arrive at the specified time, and it is estimated that I can arrive at my destination two hours earlier. Li Chen thought in his heart. However, at this moment, it suddenly happened......
