Chapter 10: Advance to the quarterfinals
On the fifth day, the final round of the Phantom Sword Sect's once-in-a-decade sect examination is finally coming, and the final eight will be selected in this round of competition, and the top eight disciples can choose one line to become a descendant disciple and enjoy a large number of sect cultivation resources.
The opponent Yun Feng drew this time was Ouyang Mu, a registered disciple of Luoyang Peak. This person is a defensive Dao technique, and his strength is firmly among the top ten registered disciples, and his cultivation has reached the third level of the Qi refining period.
This battle will be the most difficult battle since Yunfeng participated in the big exam. One of the two is good at defense, the other is good at attacking, and they use spears against shields, which attracted a large number of disciples to watch for a while.
In the ring, Yun Feng used the Imperial Sword Technique to remotely control the Fire Thunder Sword to fly up and down around Ouyang Mu, Ouyang Mu centered on himself, stepped on the Taiji pattern, and exuded a golden defensive light shield around his body.
Although the Fire Thunder Sword attacked fiercely, it could not get close to the opponent in the defensive circle. Normally, attacking consumes more spiritual power than defense, so everyone thinks that after a long time, when Yunfeng's mana is exhausted, Ouyang Mu can win with one blow, and the peak master of Luoyang Peak is also secretly proud of his disciple's strength.
Yun Feng also knew that he would definitely lose if he continued to fight like this, so he had to launch the third layer of the Illusion Sword Technique.
I saw that the red and blue fire and thunder swords floated back into the air after an attack, and suddenly the light was divided into nine, and the nine fire and thunder swords were connected end to end, winding in a circle, and the momentum suddenly increased several times, and the sword power was aggressive.
This was not only Ouyang Mu in the ring, but even the head of Sanfeng and the masters of the peaks who were watching the battle on the viewing platform were also surprised.
The Illusory Sword Technique was created by the founding patriarch of the Illusory Sword Sect, which was once invincible in the Seven Kingdoms of Tiannan, but it was extremely difficult to cultivate, after three thousand years, although there were countless cultivators, only the later Shui Qingdao and the current Falling Sword Peak Lord Chu Ye had achieved something.
Therefore, in addition to the general outline, the Illusory Sword Sect does not deliberately restrict the transmission of sword techniques, and there are often some casual cultivation studies of the Illusory Sword Decision, but because there is no general outline, very few people can cultivate beyond the third level.
And now that an unknown casual cultivator can actually cultivate to the third level of the illusion sword technique, it is really shocking.
At this time, Ouyang Mu's face on the stage was a little ugly, as a disciple of the Phantom Sword Sect, he naturally knew that only one of the nine fire thunder swords had the power of the body, but the power of the Phantom Sword Technique was that except for the caster, no one could tell which one was the body, and any phantom sword and entity could achieve instantaneous transformation.
Therefore, no matter which Fire Thunder Sword attacked, the opponent had to use the strongest defensive method to contend with it, but in fact, Yun Feng might use a phantom sword with very little spiritual power consumption to attack.
In this way, Ouyang Mu's mana consumption would be several times more than that of the other party. After only a pillar of incense, Ouyang Mu had already been defeated, and his defense power had dropped greatly.
Of course, Yun Feng would not be merciful, he saw the opportunity, summoned all the spiritual power that had been removed from maintaining the transformation technique, and launched nine fire and thunder swords to attack his opponent together.
Ouyang Mu finally gave up, the defensive circle suddenly shattered, and the Fire Thunder Sword slowly stopped in front of Ouyang Mu's chest. Although Yun Feng's spiritual power was also exhausted at this time, he could easily use the benefits of the Fire Thunder Sword to kill Ouyang Mu, so although the two seemed to be tied, the result was Ouyang Mu's defeat.
Ouyang Mu and Yun Feng were equal in strength, but their defensive skills happened to be restrained by the opponent's phantom sword technique, and they could only accept defeat helplessly.
At the end of the competition, Yun Feng took off the winning token, and felt that there were two cold eyes on the viewing platform looking at him, and looking at the past, it turned out to be Shangguan Diewu and Shui Ling'er.
Shui Ling'er gritted her teeth, saw Yunfeng in a cold sweat, and hurriedly rushed to the corner of the post-war rest area.
Half an hour later, all eight competitions ended, and the sect examination for the registered disciples of the sect finally came to an end, and all the top eight disciples were produced.
After a series of ceremonies, the sect master Sanfeng Daoren personally announced the results of the sect's big examination: the top eight disciples are the main peak disciples Liu Suifeng and Qin Wuyan, the sunset peak disciples Zhou Feng, the Luoyue Peak disciple Biluo, the Luolin Peak disciple Mai Xiaoqing, the Luoshi Peak disciple Fan Ruotong, the scattered cultivation Chu Feng, and Leng Yu.
It was the first time in the history of the Phantom Sword Sect that the two loose cultivators had entered the top eight at the same time, and Yun Feng couldn't help but feel gloomy in his heart when he learned that none of the registered disciples of Luo Jian Peak had passed the big exam.
In the next succession disciple awarding ceremony, the top eight disciples must first choose a peak to become the descendant disciple of the peak, and then the peak master will grant the identity token, and the descendant disciple will leave a natal lamp in the forbidden place of the sect, and the lamp will not be extinguished.
Becoming a descendant disciple is equivalent to entering the core disciple layer of the Phantom Sword Sect, and it is the key cultivation object of the sect, enjoying a large number of cultivation resources, and it can be said that one step to the sky.
As in the previous big exams, except for Yun Feng and another loose cultivator Leng Yu, the other six people all chose to become the descendants of the previous peak without any suspense.
In the end, the gaze of all the peak masters stayed on Yun Feng and Leng Yu. The main peak of this big exam is still the biggest beneficiary, and two disciples have been selected, so the choice of the remaining two casual cultivators is extremely crucial, and it can even affect the strength pattern of the Phantom Sword Sect in the future.
First of all, they were wooing Yun Feng, who was cultivating the third layer of illusion sword skills. The sect leader of the Phantom Sword Sect, Sanfeng Daoren, spoke first, he was slender, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, dressed in a Taiji robe, majestic but amiable, and his cultivation had reached the peak of the highest realm of the Dao Chief, and his strength was really unfathomable.
He looked at Leng Yu and then at Yun Feng, and said meaningfully: "You are waiting for scattered cultivation, you have outstanding talents, but there is no door or no sect and lack of resources, and the way to cultivate immortals is ethereal, and without cultivation resources, it will be difficult." The Phantom Sword Sect ranks among the five major sects in Qifeng Country, and the abundance of cultivation resources is far beyond the imagination of others, I believe that as long as the two of them choose correctly, they will definitely do something in the future. Mitoyo Dao stroked his beard with his hands, as if he was full of confidence.
The words of the master of a sect to win over him must be difficult for ordinary people to refuse, but Yun Feng was concerned about Luojian Peak and had no intention of switching to other peaks, while the other loose cultivator had been silent from the beginning and was indifferent at the moment.
At this time, Yang Fan, the peak master of Luomu Peak, opened his mouth and said: "The two of you have used attack attribute techniques for several rounds of trials, and your defensive ability is extremely poor, if you walk in the cultivation realm in the future, it will be difficult to survive." I have earth and wood advanced defense secret techniques for you to cultivate, what do you two think?" Before the two could talk, Yu Fan, the peak master of Sunset Peak, spoke: "On the path of cultivation, choosing the right exercise is the most important. In the past, the master of this peak had inadvertently obtained two exercises, one against fire and one with thunder, both of which belonged to high-level secret techniques, and they were extremely powerful, one of you was a fire attribute spiritual root, and the other was a thunder attribute spiritual root, and it was best to practice this kind of exercise. Everyone was shocked, these two secret techniques were extremely rare, and it was rare for the Lord of Yufeng to take them out and recruit two loose cultivators, but the two of them had their own thoughts, and they were still indifferent.
Seeing that they were still not moved, Hua Yang, the peak master of Falling Stone Peak, laughed loudly: "Cultivation is not an overnight thing, if you want to quickly improve your strength, you need to use the power of your spiritual pet. I have a Xuanhuang Bird that is very good at flying and a Dunjia Turtle who is very good at water escape, both of which are third-order spirit pets, there is no restriction on cultivation, and they can be tamed by planting the Divine Soul Imprint, which can directly increase the strength of the two to the foundation building period. "As soon as these words came out, the other peak masters secretly said that it was not good, such a spiritual pet was extremely rare, it could greatly improve the master's strength, and grow together with the master, which was more precious than the top exercises.
At this time, Sun Hua, the peak master of Luoyang Peak, who was in charge of refining the pills, suddenly grinned, and with a slight hand, he took out two pills.
This pill is pale golden, exuding a strong medicinal fragrance, and before he could speak, Song Xue'er, the peak master of the Falling Moon Peak next to him, suddenly opened his mouth and snorted coldly: "I didn't expect that for the sake of the two juniors, Senior Brother Sun was willing to take out the Zhuji Dan, I'm afraid that others will not have a chance." Because Luoyue Peak couldn't recruit male disciples, Song Xue'er made a sarcastic remark.
When Lord Sun Feng heard this, he was not angry, and said with a smile: "Zhuji Dan is a necessary pill for Taoist disciples to enter the foundation building period from the Qi cultivation period, and it is extremely precious and rare. If you two enter my rocky peak, I will give each of you one. If there is no cultivation to complement each other, no matter how good the exercises are, they are useless, and no matter how good the spiritual pet is, it is an external force after all. With that, he glanced at the other peak masters beside him.
The others scolded in their hearts: This old fox is actually willing to take out the Tsukidan, this is the most needed thing for all the unbuilt Daoists.
Such attractive conditions are sure to impress the two casual cultivators. Just when all the peak masters came up with all kinds of precious things to solicit, the two of them were still indifferent.
It was understandable that Yun Feng was so concerned about Luo Jian Peak, but the other loose cultivator Leng Yu beside him had never made any statement, which made Yun Feng a little puzzled, and he couldn't help but glance at Leng Yu with the pupil of hope, this look almost scared Yun Feng away.
