Hearing this, Zhou Xiang and the others stopped and began to pay attention to the conversation over there, after all, Lin Lu and Chang Gongzi were both going to participate in this big competition.

But I heard the "little money" laugh and said: "Haha! Brother Ren, the little brother is in a remote area and the news is blocked, but I heard that there is such a competition, and the specific situation is really unclear." This time, when I first arrived in the imperial capital with the caravan, I wanted to take advantage of this to open my eyes and ask Brother Ren to talk about it for my younger brother. Xiao Er: Get a pot of good wine first. ”

"It's easy to say, how old is my brother, so I took advantage of the banquet to say. This forbidden formation competition is held once every ten years, and each time it is held, ninety-nine forbidden formation masters participate, of which ten are from each of the nine major families, and then one is recommended by His Majesty the Ghost Emperor and one from the other eight ghost emperors. The competition is divided into nine rounds, the first and second rounds are theoretical competitions, that is, the number of prohibitions and formations that can be identified in the same time, the higher the ranking, and the third and fourth rounds of the competition in the same time to depict the number of formation sketches and prohibitions, the more the number, the more points. After the results of the first four rounds are released, an overall ranking will be carried out to determine the strength and status of the nine great families. This ranking is also one of the contents of betting in the gambling house!" Speaking of this, the 'Brother Ren' paused, and at this time, Xiao Er's wine was also delivered, and the two ghosts touched a glass.

"Ahh The rest of the competition will enter elite mode, as only the top 10 Ghost Forbidden Masters will be allowed to participate in the fifth round of the competition. From this round onwards, all the previous points are cleared and the elimination system is adopted, with several players eliminated in each round before the remaining winners can advance to the next round. The fifth round of the competition tests the ability to arrange the prohibition on the spot, and the top five are selected; the sixth round of the competition arranges the formation, and the top four are selected; the seventh round of the competition is jointly arranged by the eight Ghost Emperors except the Ghost Emperor, and the first four ghost cultivators crack the more in the same time, the higher the score, and the top three are selected; The eighth round of formations and prohibitions are arranged by the Ghost Emperor himself, and the top two are selected according to the results, and the ninth round of the forbidden formation is left by the ghost-eyed immortal masters of the past dynasties, and the one who can crack it first will win the final championship. Generally speaking, if it weren't for the ghost eye talent, the ninth round of the forbidden formation would be unbreakable at all, and most of the ghost forbidden masters would not be able to advance in this round. Therefore, most of the top two in the last few decades are decided in the eighth round of the competition, that is, whoever cracks the formation prohibition arranged by the Ghost Emperor the most and fastest will be the last first place!"

"I see!" Xiao Qian listened very carefully, without any interjection in the middle, and only when he heard this did he breathe a sigh of relief and asked: "I heard that the higher the cultivation, the more advantageous it is to break the formation and prohibition, and the older you are, the more experience you have, so this is more than the higher the cultivation and the older you are, the more advantageous it is." Than at the end of the day, there's only a bunch of old guys left?"

In order to ensure that new family geniuses and bloodlines continue to appear, the Nine Great Families will generally match half of the young disciples and half of the old disciples in the ten places. Moreover, in every competition, there will be outstanding young talents who stand out and squeeze a few old ghosts down, making those veteran array mages lose face. Therefore, most of the old ghost forbidden masters will voluntarily give up after participating in a few big competitions. ”

"Hmm!" Xiao Qian nodded as he listened, "Little brother has another question, from the seventh round onwards, the content of the competition is to crack the formation and prohibition, but what if the questions of the eight ghost emperors are too difficult for the four ghost forbidden masters to crack?"

"Hehe, you underestimate the disciples of the family too much, although the strength of the Ghost Emperor is strong, but the forbidden formation is not comparable to these families that have been inherited for thousands of years, and even the prohibition and formation arranged by the Ghost Emperor have been completely broken by these disciples repeatedly, so the question you raised generally does not exist. Unless the Ghost Emperor or the Ghost Emperor comes up with an eternal problem, they really can't be trapped. And there's another layer of inside story in this!" Speaking of this, the ghost cultivator surnamed Ren said in a low voice, "It is said that the forbidden formations issued by the Eight Great Ghost Emperors all come from the families in their district, just to take care of the ghost forbidden masters on their side!"

"Ahh

"Hehe," the ghost clan surnamed Ren smiled, "Then we will rank in the eighth game!"

......

Zhou Xiang and the others listened for a long time, and they had a little more understanding of this forbidden formation.

But I heard the next door say again: "Every time there is a big competition, Guo Ji Gambling House, the largest casino in the imperial capital, has to open a gambling game, and our chance to make a fortune depends on this." The ghost cultivator surnamed Ren began to change the subject.

"Little brother listen!" Hearing that there was a chance to make a fortune, Xiao Qian's tone immediately became respectful.

"As for which Ghost Forbidden Master can get the final first place, the ranking of each game and the final ranking of each family, and even the number of disciples who enter the top ten, there will be a gambling game, and the odds of each game are also different. This is our chance to make a fortune, because the cousin of my brother's cousin is an outer disciple of the Sun family of the Imperial Ghost Forbidden Family, so I still know a lot about the inside information of this big competition. The more Ren surnamed Ghost Xiu spoke, the more excited he became.

"Is it!" Xiao Qian's tone sounded extremely surprised, "Little brother will give Brother Ren another cup, this time the little brother has covered the meal money, and I ask Brother Ren to give me advice!"

"Well, it's easy to say!" Ren surnamed Ghost Xiu took a drink.

Zhou Xiang also became very interested in the words of the ghost clan surnamed Ren, so they pricked up their ears and listened carefully. The other party continued: "The nine ghost districts of the Huangquan Realm correspond to the nine great families, namely the Sun family in the Central Emperor District, the Cao family in the Five Ghost District, the Zhao family in the Xuanmei District, the Chang family in the Netherworld District, the Lin family in the Guili District, the Ren family in the Jinwei District, the Cui family in the Huaqi District, the Li family in the Heavenly Soul District, and the Wang family in the Disha District. These nine families have all produced ghost-eyed immortal masters in history. Speaking of this, the ghost cultivator surnamed Ren paused for a moment, as if he was making some moves, "When it comes to the ghost eye immortal master, I will show respect for my brother first, don't blame Brother Qian! These nine families each have a long heritage, since the last ghost eye immortal master soared two thousand years ago, the strength of the nine great families has gone down and gone, and the strongest should be the Cao family in the Five Ghost District, because according to inside information, among the new generation of disciples of the Cao family, there is a genius Cao Ju who has mastered the 'soul eye technique', I heard this' The 'Soul Eye Technique' is the acquired spell that the Cao family extracted from the blood of the family with the power of the clan that is closest to the inheritance of the Ghost Eye Immortal Master, and it is said that it is comparable to the Ghost Eye Technique in breaking the prohibition of the formation. Although Cao Ju has no experience in participating in the big competition, and is even too young, but after the key training of the Cao family, this son will definitely be the favorite to win the championship this time. I heard that even the Ghost Emperor treated the Cao clan very well. ”

"With the respect of the Ghost Emperor, they all treat the Cao clan preferentially?" Xiao Qian was a little strange, "I think His Majesty the Ghost Emperor is the first ghost cultivator and the supreme strength of my Huangquan Realm, so I shouldn't pay special attention to a little disciple of the 'Soul Eye Technique', right?"

"Brother Xian, you are not a monk, so you can't be blamed for your ignorance! What is the most feared thing as a ghost cultivator? Thunder Tribulation! Thunder and lightning itself are the nemesis of our ghost clan! Although the Heavenly Tribulation appeared abnormally thousands of years ago and never came again, the Heavenly Star Pavilion on the human side had a prediction that 'Feihong will come out, and the Heavenly Opportunity will appear', and they speculate that the Heavenly Tribulation will reappear within a hundred years! Although the Ghost Emperor is respected, there is also a day when the calamity will be ascended, calculate the time, this Ghost Emperor will not be more than two hundred years away from the day of ascension, and when the time comes, in the face of the Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulation, if there is the help of the Ghost Eye Immortal Master, not only is there no danger but can take the opportunity to reshape the golden body! But I have not had a Ghost Eye Immortal Master in the Huangquan Realm for two thousand years, and the difficulty of the Ghost Emperor's tribulation can be imagined, and it is even possible to disappear, so you can imagine the eagerness of His Majesty the Ghost Emperor to look forward to the appearance of the Ghost Eye Immortal Master over the years. Isn't there a saying that 'a dead horse should be a live horse doctor'? Now that Cao Ju, who has the soul eye technique, has appeared, like a ray of dawn in the boundless darkness, can the ghost emperor not pay attention to it? No matter how big the real gap between the soul eye technique and the ghost eye technique is, it is better than nothing! Moreover, not only the ghost emperor, as long as it is a ghost clan monk, especially the higher the cultivation level, no one is looking forward to the day when he can achieve positive results. Ascend to the Heavenly Realm, but the Tribulation is a hurdle that everyone has to face, and the Ghost Eye Immortal Master is the only key that can ensure the success of the monk's Tribulation and even turn harm into profit, he is also the protector of all our Ghost Realm monks! The status is still above the Ghost Emperor! Therefore, our Ghost Clan will have the eternal inheritance of the Nine Forbidden Formation Families. It is precisely because of this that the appearance of the Soul Eye Technique this time will definitely be valued by the major families and even the entire ghost clan cultivator world. ”

"Wouldn't that be a bet on 'Cao Ju to get the first' to make a sure profit!" Xiao Qian said.

"Brother thinks the same way, I believe everyone thinks so. But the ghosts of the gambling house are not stupid, they have already released the word in advance, Cao Ju's odds are zero! That is, if you bet on Cao Ju to get the first place, then even if the result is true, you will not make anything. But Cao Ju's odds of not being the first are twenty to one!" the monk surnamed Ren sighed.

"Isn't that the money you won't be able to make this time?" said the monk Qian.
