Chapter 149: The True Face of the Immortal Tablet [Five Watches]
In the evening, after a day of fierce and 'exciting' competition, the list of the top 16 was finally released.
It's really exciting, ten rounds of fighting, except for four people who can win all the games, everyone else has to look at the level of points.
A few were still in the top 10 after the match, but others were pushed out of the top 16 after qualifying.
Among the top 16, there are 13 people from the 'Dao Elders' generation, only three of them from the younger generation, 11 people from each mountain and Taoist generation, two Buddhist cultivators, and only three casual cultivators.
And two of these three casual cultivators were people whose identities were suspicious.
Originally, these two people would also be taken down by the 'black whistle', but in the last round of the game, the investigation team temporarily changed their strategy, and these two people were also considered 'in danger', and entered the top 16 on the third day of the Immortal Dao Conference with the ranking of 13th and 15th.
The Immortal Dao Conference also reached a climax due to today's fierce fighting, and many Qingya monks also put down their shelves and discussed with the strangers around them about the strengths and weaknesses of each Dao Inheritance Method.
Tomorrow's top 16 competition for hegemony makes these thousands of monks look forward to it.
After the last game of the qualifying match, Qing Yanzi directly stood up and announced that the top sixteen monks born at this time would have the opportunity to comprehend the secret of the immortal tablet tonight.
But because it is the top 16, you can only understand one side of the stele, and only the top eight can you understand the other side.
This made the monk who had worked hard for two days and fought more than a dozen battles but finally missed the opportunity to raise his head and sigh.
Shi also died, and he could only sigh that this time his strength was insufficient, and he lacked Fuyuan.
Although the Immortal Dao Conference was to convene the righteous monks of the cultivation world in the name of Qing Yanzi, in fact, most of the monks knew in their hearts that this was an officially sponsored competition.
The officials of the Great Hua Kingdom were not stingy, but all the monks who rushed into the qualifying competition would be rewarded with different amounts of elixirs and refining materials, and the higher the ranking, the richer the rewards.
And tomorrow's top 16 competition, the top three will have a few good quality magic weapons as rewards.
This made Wang Sheng also a little regretful, after all, in addition to the sword, he only had a small magic weapon on his body......
Magic weapons and elixirs are naturally the better.
That night, the top 16 were summoned to the Taoist temple, and the Taoist masters also gathered together, and they would also observe the 'immortal monument' together.
The four Jindan Realm monks did not show up, and the person in charge of presiding over the matter was replaced by Mu Yue of the special investigation team.
At half past eight, the group went down the mountain in a mighty way, returned to the venue, and went to the rear of the 'heavily guarded' rostrum.
On the first day of the Immortal Road Conference, a shack was erected here, and several teams of soldiers of the combat readiness group were on duty 24 hours a day to protect national property.
When the Dao Masters and the Sixteen Elite Dao Conference came here, the silver-white box that was two meters high and three meters wide was carried to the door of the house by eight soldiers of the combat readiness group, and a cordon was set up outside.
Mu Yue shouted: "Because this treasure is too valuable, please don't come close to it within five meters!"
In the corner, Neem was tiptoeing and looking forward, but Wang Sheng stood there very calmly, carrying the sword box on his back, without saying a word.
Mu Yue instructed: "I'm tired of the Taoist leaders in the front rows to sit on the spot first, so that the Taoist leaders in the back can also see ......."
The Taoist masters naturally agreed, and sat down cross-legged for nearly half of them.
Seeing that Wang Sheng was a little too calm, Fei Neem on the side leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Hey, Feiyu, what is your way?"
"I did see it before," Wang Sheng didn't deliberately suppress his voice, "I'm a sword cultivator, and what is recorded on this stone tablet is not a sword technique, so it's useless to me." ”
The people present, except for the top 16 of the Immortal Dao Conference, who were a group of old Taoist masters, how could they not hear Wang Sheng's words?
Mu Yue said to the two research institute personnel on the side: "Let's start the exhibition." ”
The two of them agreed, put on white gloves, and walked to the iron box to fiddle with for a while, enter a few passwords, and verify fingerprints and iris a few times before the iron box slowly opened.
A Taoist master couldn't help but laugh and said: "If someone takes away this box, why bother so much, just use the Dao method to tear open the surrounding iron sheets." ”
The two researchers were also slightly embarrassed.
Several Dao masters laughed a few times, but the laughter quickly faded away, and as the box opened, a stone tablet revealed its true face.
The light of two searchlights hit the pitch-black stone stele, and the rows of obscure ancient characters on it were clearly visible.
At the same time, an indescribable rhyme floated out on this stone tablet and slowly flowed out.
This rhyme contains many artistic conceptions, as if you can see the ancient starry sky, and you can see a blue star slowly turning......
Just this kind of rhyme has already lifted the spirits of the monks present.
"Sure enough, it's an immortal monument, this is really not a mortal thing!"
"This scripture is so profound, it seems to be expounding the wonderful principle of yin and yang, but it is not the way of yin and yang that Poor Dao has heard before!"
At this moment, the two 'loose cultivators' who were standing in different positions were also quite excited, and each wrote down the scriptures on the stone tablet.
The stele was originally supposed to be a square shape of two meters square, but several corners were damaged, and even with it, the ancient text on it was also incomplete.
At this time, whether it was the Dao masters of the various families or the top 16 of the Immortal Dao Conference, they were all silently memorizing the ancient characters on them, and for the monks who had completed the foundation building, it was not difficult to memorize these ancient characters.
What's more, Mu Yue said again: "We give you half an hour to comprehend, and we also ask all Dao Masters to keep quiet and don't interfere with everyone." ”
With that, Mu Yue walked to the side, leaving only the soldiers of the combat readiness group to take care of them.
There were many Taoist masters present, and no one dared to do anything to snatch the stele, and the value of the stele lies in its content, and now the content is displayed in front of them, just memorize it.
Wang Sheng waited quietly for a while, trying not to observe the two loose cultivators, so as not to attract the other party's attention.
After more than ten minutes, most of them had already written down the inscription and began to deliberate on its meaning.
And a Buddhist cultivator with a delicate face stood up, kept smiling and giving Buddha salutes, slowly squeezed out of the crowd, and walked straight towards Wang Sheng.
"Amitabha," the frightened monk folded his hands and saluted to Wang Sheng, suppressed his voice, and said in a breathless voice, "Non-verbal Taoist, the little monk Tianlong Temple is frightened and polite." ”
Wang Sheng also returned the salute and whispered, "What does the mage have to say?"
"Hehe," he scratched his head, "during the day, the non-verbal chief secretly helped me, although this matter is not in accordance with the rules, but I still have to thank you." ”
Wang Sheng naturally couldn't say anything about it, and said with a smile: "It was also instructed by Mu Yue, and the master said that the master had worked a lot for the investigation team, and these should all be." ”
Neem put his hands in his cuffs and said depressedly: "Do you two dare not discuss this matter so openly, so many seniors are here." ”
Wang Sheng and Huai looked at each other and smiled, but they felt that each other's temperaments were quite good.
Wang Shengdao: "After this conference, let's find another opportunity to get together and make friends officially." ”
The surprised monk smiled and said, "Amitabha, this matter is very good. It's better to add a WeChat first, and there will be a lot of communication on weekdays. ”
"Okay," Wang Sheng happily agreed, and the two took out their mobile phones and operated for a while, and the frightened monk returned to his original position with satisfaction.
Half an hour passed, and the silver-white box closed again, and the stele disappeared.
In the next few minutes, no one looked at the stele anymore, and they were only studying the contents of the inscription.
The Taoist masters all saw that this was a profound method of cultivation, the main yin and yang changes, some of the Tao can confirm their own inheritance of the classics, and some of the Tao can be of no use, just as a Taoist reserve.
At this time, the two 'loose cultivators' tried their best to suppress the excitement in their hearts, and their behavior was no different from that of the monks around them.
Mu Yue walked slowly and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this exhibition is over, and after the top eight are decided tomorrow, there will be backsides participating in the exhibition." ”
As a result, all the Dao Masters and the top 16 of the Immortal Dao Conference returned the same way, and they all felt that they had gained a lot.
An hour later, Wang Sheng and Mu Yue went and returned, and they waited for a while, and several figures fell from the sky, but they were Qing Yanzi, Old Heavenly Master, and other four Jindan monks.
Wang Sheng saluted forward and took the initiative to say, "There should be no flaws. ”
"Okay, Xiaosheng, you did a good job, and Mu Yue also worked hard. Qing Yanzi answered twice, walked forward, the silver-white box opened again, and the stone tablet slowly revealed.
Qing Yanzi moved forward with his left hand, leaned against the stone stele, and then gently pulled it to remove a thin layer of stone slabs;
After the slate, the 'tadpole texts' that Wang Sheng was familiar with reappeared, and Wang Sheng just glanced at it this time, and felt that the world was spinning, and he quickly withdrew his gaze.
Qing Yanzi made a gesture of please and said, "Three seniors, please see, this is one of the six monuments." ”
The Old Heavenly Master, the Yuanpu Zhenren, and the Flying Dragon Dao people stepped forward, but the three of them only glanced at it a few times, quickly closed their eyes, and didn't look at it anymore.
The old heavenly master said in a low voice: "It is not trivial to keep this thing properly, if the text on it is not good, it is a great avenue text, if the cultivation is not enough, the soul will be hurt by it." ”
"Don't worry, senior," Qing Yanzi nodded, and said, "This thing will be sent away later, although we want to fish, we can't really throw it out." ”
"Good. The Heavenly Master bowed his head slightly, and the four Jindan Dao people didn't say anything.
