Looking at Tan Shaobai's tall back, the ethereal Dao Zun couldn't help but feel a strong sense of loss in his heart, as if he had lost something.

After Tan Shaobai and Hongzhi returned to the room, they said, "Xiaozhi, you help me protect the Fa, I want to cultivate for a while first, don't call me, let me wake up by myself." After speaking, he took advantage of his calm mood at this time to easily enter a state of concentration, and his mind sank into the Lingtai Jindan, and the thick meridians in his body were clearly presented in front of him. The golden pill emitted a faint glimmer, and the soft divine power ran rapidly along the meridians. Through his previous enlightenment and his calm state of mind, he pushed his divine power to continue to increase.

Somewhere on the main peak of Xianzhao.

A cold voice said, "Both of you are in the top sixteen. Remember for me, this time you will take that girl's surname no matter what, and whoever meets her, I will allow you to use the Broken Heart Gun and the Remnant Sun Knife. The revenge of killing the son is not shared. Finally she came out of the ghost den in Qianhui Valley, and this time I will definitely make her unable to go down to the main peak of Xianzhao. ”

Another younger voice said, "Master, will this cause revenge from those people in Qianhui Valley? ”

The previous voice snorted and said, "Revenge? That's impossible." During the game, the fairy art has no eyes, and even if you kill her, I can infer that it is a miss. It's a big deal to let you go back to the mountain. This is the best chance. You must grasp it, whoever kills her, I will help him become the successor of the next sect master. ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi. The voices of the two young men agreed at the same time.

"Okay, you guys go back to cultivating. In the round of 16 in three days' time, if you don't meet her, you must win. ”

With another answer, the two figures disappeared into the shadows. A middle-aged man walked out of the corner, and the moonlight shone on his handsome face, which was already a little distorted, looking very strange. He clenched his fists tightly and said hatefully, "Lyra." I'm going to let you go away this time, so that I can relieve the hatred in my heart. "This middle-aged man with a distorted face is none other than the Heavenly Dao Venerable, the second sect master of the Heavenly Stream. Not long ago, both he and Xuan Yu had just broken through the realm of immortality.

Two days later, Tan Shaobai woke up from his meditation, and he clearly felt that after these two days of cultivation, the golden pill at his spiritual platform was more condensed than before.

"Big brother, you're awake. ”

Tan Shaobai glanced at Hongzhi, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed opposite him, and smiled: "Xiaozhi, thank you for helping me protect the Fa." These two days of cultivation are very important to me. Jindan is now completely solid. ”

Hongji smiled, "These seem to be stimulated by the girl named Lyra that day." Big brother, your mood has changed a lot these days, what's wrong. ”

Tan Shaobai floated to the ground, knocked on Hongzhi's bald head, and said, "Don't ask, I don't want to mention anything that has passed." Don't worry, I'm fine now, it's still the same Tan Shaobai as before. In the future, I will never be tired of any emotions again. Among us cultivators, those girls always have such and such concerns. Hmph, let them worry about it. ”

Hongzhi paused for a moment, as if he had woken up to something, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are tired of love, eldest brother! Could it be that Yuhua rejected you? No." I see that little girl looks at you very differently. And it's not just her, even Yuping is so kind to you. Big brother, although you're not very handsome, you're quite popular with girls.

Tan Shaobai snorted and said, "Come on." Don't talk about girls in front of me in the future. As I said earlier, I won't let them affect my mood again. Although Yuhua and Yuping are good, we are also impossible. Let's not talk about anything else, that is, the division commander can't pass that level. That day, the sect master also said that he did not approve of the union of our Qingyun Sect with Dao couples. ”

Hongji smiled mysteriously and said, "That's not necessarily. If you win the championship of this competition, won't you be able to woo the person you like casually? At that time, the Heavenly Dao Venerable can't stop it. Tan Shaobai glared at him angrily and said, "Are you sarcastic about me, you still say such things knowing that I have been eliminated." ”

Hongzhi leaned over to Tan Shaobai and said with a smile: "How dare I be sarcastic about the eldest brother? I am telling the truth, although you were eliminated that day." But now it is resurrected. Although the original top 16 had already been produced, one of the disciples of Wuzhao Immortal was too seriously injured and could not recover in a short time, so he abstained. In order to maintain the fairness of the game surname. The sect masters and elders of each sect decided to draw lots from the two defeated disciples who had already been eliminated to add one person. And this lucky one happens to be you. Now, you don't have to rush to leave. ”

Tan Shaobai froze in place and muttered, "No." When did my luck get so good. ”

Hongji smiled, "It's not like when it became so good. It's been good. Ever since I followed you, you have been the envy of all your adventures! By the way, there's something I haven't told you yet. A few days ago, when you had a gloomy face every day, I met Sect Master Wuyun under the introduction of Sect Master Lianshu. Sect Master Wuyun's cultivation is really admirable. Much more advanced than my dead master. He has now entered a realm equivalent to the middle stage of your cultivation realm. I believe that it won't take long before the Buddha tribulation will be overcome. Sect Master Wuyun seems to be very interested in our Zen Buddhism, and has invited me to play in their Brahmanic Heart Sect, but I haven't agreed yet. ”

Tan Shaobai thought back to his past, and secretly said in his heart: Yes! His luck is really good. More than 800 years ago, he was an orphan in a remote village. Later, he joined the Qingyun Sect by chance, and then met the stranger, and with the help of the stranger, he became the most improved disciple of the younger generation, and also got the small iron rod and the anti-heaven mirror. All of this seems to be a matter of fate. Well, since I have entered the semi-finals, I have only one goal, and that is to win the championship. If you meet Lyra again on the playing field, you will have a fair fight with her. Let's see if her Nine Immortal Qin is stronger, or if her own small iron rod is more powerful.

"Xiaozhi, if you want to go to the Brahma Heart Sect, go ahead. After all, you are a Buddha cultivator, and being in that Buddha Gate should be of great benefit to your cultivation. ”

Hongji nodded and said, "Yes, there, maybe I can enter the Great Perfection realm early." Since you agree, eldest brother, when this rookie competition is over, I will go with Sect Master Wuyun. I won't be going for too long, as soon as I have an understanding, I will immediately go back to Qingyun Sect to find you. Hehe, don't miss me too much!"

Tan Shaobai snorted disdainfully and said, "I miss you, don't dream." You're not a beauty. Have you been getting very close to Sect Master Lianshu recently, you have to be careful! Sect Master Lianshu's cultivation is so profound, he can't move the hearts of mortals. ”

Hongji said angrily: "you." Do you think I'm going to be as dirty as you? I admit it, I have a good impression of Sect Master Lianshu, but I have the purest respect. ”

Tan Shaobai laughed, "Pure, are you still pure? I don't know who goes to Xianzhaofeng's kitchen every day to find wine and meat." It's a pity! This is a holy place for cultivating people's truths, so how can there be meat? Are you very disappointed!"

Hongji blushed and said embarrassedly: "You, how do you know, haven't you been depressed?"

Tan Shaobai smiled and said, "Although I was in a bad mood in those days, I know your breath best." With my heavenly ears, I can naturally clearly distinguish what you are doing. Nuoda Xianzhao Mountain didn't even have some wine and meat, and he was really angry with the poor monks. The last sentence was said in the tone of Hongji. After saying that, he burst out laughing.

Hongji's jade-like face turned red and white, and he just wanted to defend himself, but he heard light footsteps outside the door.

"Brother Hongzhi, is Shaobai awake?" A very low voice sounded, Tan Shaobai's heart moved, and he heard that this was Yuhua's voice. Hongzhi stepped forward to open the door, only to see the Yuhua sisters standing outside the door, and hurriedly let the second daughter in, and said with a smile: "Your big brother Shaobai just woke up. This is your seventh trip. ”

Yuhuaqiao's face was slightly red, she glanced at Tan Shaobai, and said, "Tomorrow is the rematch of the Seven Newcomer Competition." I was afraid that Big Brother Shaobai would delay the game because of his cultivation, so I came to call him. ”

Tan Shaobai didn't have the appearance of frolicking with Hongzhi before, and said indifferently: "Congratulations to the two junior sisters for successfully entering the semi-finals." I'm just making it up. In fact, it doesn't matter if you participate or not. ”

Yuhua clearly felt that there was a feeling of rejection from Tan Shaobai's body, as if he hadn't seen him for a few days, and a thick barrier had been cast between them. Xiu frowned slightly, and said, "Brother Shaobai, how can you be so arrogant? I heard Uncle Miao say that your cultivation is actually very strong. The defeat in the preliminary round was just careless. ”

Tan Shaobai didn't want to have any entanglement with the girl now, let alone give the Yuhua sisters any hope, so he stood up, walked to the door, breathed a breath of fresh air, and said, "Two junior sisters, there will be a competition tomorrow, you should go back to meditation now, and improve your cultivation to the best state." I still have to cultivate, so you guys go back first. ”

The Yuhua sisters looked at each other, they naturally didn't understand Tan Shaobai's current mood, Yuhua walked quickly to Tan Shaobai's side, and said with a slight annoyance: "Brother Shaobai, what's wrong with you? Don't you hate us very much?" Tan Shaobai glanced at her lightly and didn't answer. Turning his head, he looked at the night sky.

Yuhua said angrily: "I know, you fell in love with that Tianqin in Qianhui Valley, right? Then you don't need to do this to us! Are you amazing? We were just polite to you for the sake of helping our village, but I didn't expect you to be such a person." I really misread you. ”

Yuping gloomily grabbed her angry sister and said in a low voice, "Sister, forget it." Let's go back. ”

Tan Shaobai sighed lightly and said, "Yes, I'm nothing remarkable." I'm just an orphan. Lyra is the phoenix of men, and it is not something I should hope for. Let's go. ”

Yuhua's eyes flashed, and she pushed Tan Shaobai away violently and ran away quickly. From the corner of Tan Shaobai's eyes, he saw that there were a few crystalline tears on Yuhua's face.

Watching the Yuhua sisters leave, Hongzhi said with some puzzlement: "Big brother, why do you want to be like this, they are good to you!"

Tan Shaobai turned his head, his eyes shining, "They are good to me." That's why I don't want them to get hurt. Now I don't have much interest in women. In this world, only strength speaks for itself. What I need now is a lot of strength. When I can fight against all things in heaven and earth with my own strength, I will think about other things. At that time, even if I take all the beauties in the world as my own, no one will dare to say anything. A strong domineering aura surged out of Tan Shaobai's body crazily.

Hongji suddenly became solemn, and the Buddha crystal rosary appeared in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Big brother, you are too obsessed with power. Don't you know that this will lead you to the devil's path? ”

Feeling the Buddha aura covering himself, Tan Shaobai did not resist, but said coldly: "I am obsessed with strength, but I will not fall into demons." I want to become an immortal. And to be the most powerful immortal. The first time I was humiliated because of my lack of strength, I swore that one day, I would become the most powerful existence in the two realms of immortals and humans. ”

Hongzhi's whole body was shocked, and a cloud of silver suddenly gushed out from Tan Shaobai's chest, completely blocking his Buddha qi, his own cultivation was obviously much higher than Tan Shaobai's, but he couldn't penetrate his barrier at all. With a dejected sigh, the Buddha power on the Buddha crystal rosary was dispersed, and Hongji muttered: "You can handle your own affairs." No one can help you. Big brother, I just wanted to give you a word of advice. Sometimes, strength doesn't mean everything. Don't let your eyes be covered. I heard from the Buddha. I don't say it to myself. So that's what I heard. And my surname is also. The surname is me. Inside and outside movements. It's all because of the surname. At this time, he was full of peace like a Buddha statue.

Looking at Hongzhi's calm face, Tan Shaobai stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I have my own measure." I know you're genuine to me. No matter what happens in the future, you will always be my good brother. Just now, you could obviously use the Buddha power to forcibly break through the barrier I arranged, and then use the Buddha power to infect my mood, but you didn't do that, that's all, that's enough. After speaking, Tan Shaobai crossed Hongzhi's body and floated on

G, once again entered the state of cultivation.
