Wei Wuxian looked at Qi Xuanzong opposite, this was a young man in his thirties, there was no trace of fireworks in his body, and his qi was extremely well converging.

He has a very good appearance, and you can find him at a glance in the crowd, because everyone will be attracted to his leadership temperament, which is a natural trait of him, and he is destined to be a person who is in the spotlight from the moment he is born.

Qi Xuanzong smiled and signaled to him that he could start.

With his identity and strength, it is impossible to strike first.

Wei Wuxian never underestimated his opponent, no matter who the person opposite was, he would go all out.

As soon as his right hand flipped, a mouthful of water attribute primary-grade three-element Dao forbidden sword weapon appeared in his hand.

The three prohibitions of this sword sacrifice are the water mine ban, the light splitting ban, and the water splitting ban.

Among the three prohibitions, the mine ban is a big ban, and it needs a huge yuan force as the basis to be used when it is excited; the light separation ban and the water separation ban are both small bans, and the yuan force required for excitation is small, and it can be used many times in the fighting method.

The use of the prohibition can only be exerted at the right time, so if the strength of the two sides is equal, it depends on who has stronger fighting skills and more experience.

Qi Xuanzong also took out a mouthful of water attribute sword weapons, and the grade was also a junior grade, so it was impossible for him to take advantage of a junior disciple in the early stage of foundation building.

Of course, he didn't underestimate the other party either. Since Sun Zhimao, the deputy hall master, can let himself, who is a monk in the late stage of foundation building, evaluate the other party, this in itself is very revealing.

Wei Wuxian saw that the other party took out the sword weapon, and his body suddenly catapulted from the same place, the speed was so fast, and he didn't have time to react at all if his eyes were not good, and the person arrived in front of Qi Xuanzong.

The distance between the two is only more than ten zhang, and this distance is almost within the snap of a finger for the current Wei Wuxian.

Qi Xuanzong sighed lightly, his body shifted backwards, and the sword in his right hand was protected in front of him, he had always been cautious, and he would never attack rashly before he knew the reality of the other party.

Wei Wuxian didn't think that he would be able to hurt the other party with this blow, and when he saw the opposite direction, he shifted back, and his body suddenly exerted force again, and his speed was twice as fast as before.

This is his intention, if he attacks with all his strength in the first shot, he may be able to force the opponent to make a hard move, but it is absolutely impossible to hurt the opponent.

Therefore, the first ejection speed slowed down by half, and the second time the opponent retreated, but the distance between the two sides was more than half closer than before, only about three zhang away.

This distance is likely to catch him off guard and let him succeed with one blow, so it can be said that he has calculated quite thoroughly.

Most of the monks watching the battle from the periphery were stunned by this scene.

The previous one was already fast, and many people were ashamed of themselves, but who knew that the next one was faster, which made people feel like teleporting.

These people are all knowledgeable, and if they want to make their bodies make such violent and fast movements in a very short time, they are afraid that if their bodies are a little worse, they will be broken on the spot. This requires a certain level of physical strength to be able to do this.

The two eyes of the deputy hall master Sun Zhimao's slight squint also opened at this moment, his realm was above everyone, but this time, he immediately looked at this little monk who was a little 'arrogant' in the early stage of foundation building, not to mention anything else, the strength of this little monk's body was comparable to that of a mid-stage foundation building monk who specialized in cultivating physical arts.

Qi Xuanzong was also taken aback, he had already overestimated the other party, and he was also very cautious, he didn't expect that the other party was even more powerful than he expected.

He knew that he couldn't hide, and he made a decision almost in a thought. The right-handed sword was pulled out in reverse, and the white light on the sword weapon was blazing, and an invisible wave of qi suddenly appeared between the two, just blocking the serpent-like sword on the opposite side.

There was a stabbing sound, and the sword in Wei Wuxian's hand pierced through the layers of qi waves, and clicked on Qi Xuanzong's sword weapon.

Two white ripples visible to the naked eye rippled from between the swords of the two sides, and Wei Wuxian was directly shocked out of the ten zhang away. And Qi Xuanzong drew two long grooves on the ground with his two feet, and he stepped back five zhang away to stabilize his body.

In the first encounter, the two sides actually ended in a draw, and it seemed that Wei Wuxian still had a slight advantage.

At this moment, the people around were boiling, and they all asked who this senior brother Wei who was only in the early stage of foundation building, and who was able to force Qi Xuanzong, the leader of the late stage of foundation building monks in the sect, to retreat with the power of a sword!

"Hey, isn't this Senior Brother Wei?" A person squeezed in at the back of the crowd, but it was Bai Liqi who went to Nanqiao Mine with Wei Wuxian.

"Is Senior Brother Baili familiar with him?" asked a late-stage foundation monk beside him.

"I just came back from the Nanqiao mine with him and Senior Brother Jin not long ago, what is he doing here?"

"Isn't this a competition with Qi Xuanzong!"

"Why is he competing with Qi Xuanzong?"

"I heard it's for the East China Sea!"

While the two were talking, the competition in the arena began again.

Qi Xuanzong took the initiative to make a move this time, and his swordsmanship was like a rolling river, and the momentum was so great that even the people around him felt the surging worship.

Wei Wuxian performed the swordsmanship of Shunshui, not colliding with the opponent, and moving with the opponent's sword momentum.

The two sides came and went, and they fought together for a while, judging from the scene, Qi Xuanzong had the advantage everywhere, and Wei Wuxian was like a small boat, swaying in the wind and waves, as if he would be torn to pieces by the ruthless water at any time.

Qi Xuanzong had forgotten the original intention of the competition at this time, and it was also a fortunate thing for him to meet a good opponent who had been stuck in the bottleneck of the Jindan period.

Haha smiled and said: "What a Shunshui sword technique, Senior Brother Wei, I will use the Seven Spiral Sword Technique of this sect later, you have to pay more attention!"

The people outside the scene were shocked when they heard this, the Seven Spins Sword Technique was Qi Xuanzong's best sword technique, and he once used this sword technique to hang seven mid-stage foundation building monks in it at the same time, and its power was so great that it was difficult to describe.

Wei Wuxian knew that this should be a sword technique that only true disciples could come into contact with, and a fighting spirit rose, and the sword technique slowly converged, carefully checking the changes in the opponent's sword technique.

I saw that the sword momentum that was originally surging like a surging river began to rotate to the right, forming a huge whirlpool, and the surrounding air became viscous, and it was pulled inward by the suction power that came out of the whirlpool.

At this time, the Shunshui Sword Technique was no longer able to deal with it, and his sword momentum changed at the moment, and he changed to the Lishui Sword Technique, separating a gap from it, and rushing out of the range affected by the whirlpool.

However, if the Seven Spiral Sword Technique is so easy to break, it will not be a top-level Sword Technique. He had just escaped the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den, locked in by another whirlpool that had just been generated.

The Seven Spins Sword Technique is actually also known as the Seven Star Vortex Water Sword Formation.

The swordsmanship is created according to the direction of the seven stars combined with the trend of the water, each vortex represents a star position, and the seven stars are all in the sword formation.

It is said that a monk who is proficient in this set of swordsmanship can leapfrog and fight with a monk of a higher level without falling below, and the reason why Qi Xuanzong became a leading figure in the later stage of foundation building is precisely because he is proficient in this set of seven-spin swordsmanship, and he is the only person in the entire Tianshui Sect who can lay down the seven-star whirlpool water sword formation so far.

"My God, Qi Xuanzong has even used this set of sword techniques, what is he going to do?" Bai Liqi looked at the fighting methods in the arena dumbfounded, and the excitement in his heart was indescribable.

He knew that Wei Wuxian was powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful that in the Tianshui Sect, the monks below the Jindan who could make Qi Xuanzong use the Seven Spiral Sword Technique could count the two slaps.

Sun Zhimao, the deputy hall master, had already seen that the little monk was indeed not talking big, he really had some ability, he was going to announce the end of the competition, but when he saw Qi Xuanzong's appearance, he remembered something, smiled, and continued to watch the battle.

The reason why Qi Xuanzong came to the Foreign Affairs Hall to assist him in handling affairs this time was mainly because he had never found an opportunity to break through the bottleneck, whether it was retreat and penance or looking for the secret method of the elixir, it was useless.

After several failures, Qi Xuanzong knew that it was not penance that could solve the bottleneck problem, so under the guidance of the sect master Jun Wuji, under the experience of the Foreign Affairs Hall, don't be too persistent, and if you lose your burden, you may have unexpected gains.

Of course, the deputy hall master Sun Zhimao knew about this, but what he didn't expect was that Qi Xuanzong had been in the Foreign Affairs Hall for some days, and he had also fought with several disciples in the late stage of foundation building, but there was no breakthrough.

However, this little monk aroused his fighting spirit, looking at the current situation, as long as the little monk can hold on, it is very likely that Qi Xuanzong will make a breakthrough.

Therefore, he watched the contest with peace of mind, hoping that the little monk would last a little longer.

Until now, he didn't think that the little monk had the strength to really compete with Qi Xuanzong.

The monks watching the battle outside were silently counting the whirlpools that had been rippling open, and these whirlpools were all transformed by sword qi, which was really powerful. Five star vortices had been inspired, but the little monk was still holding on.

"Sixth!"

It was said.

"Do you think he'll make it to the seventh?"

"This—" The man was about to say that it was impossible, but he changed his words again: "This is hard to say!"

There was only one person in the crowd whose face was very ugly, and that was Xu Yinlong who was hiding in the corner.

He never imagined that after only seeing him for more than a year, Wei Wuxian had grown to such an extent that he could already confront the senior brother in the late stage of foundation building. Moreover, this monk in the late stage of foundation building is also the leader of Qi Xuanzong below the Jindan monk in the sect!

He gritted his teeth, quietly withdrew from the crowd, and rushed towards the courtyard where the master was.

Wei Wuxian was now dealing with the star vortex with all his might, this was the first time he had competed with a late-stage foundation building cultivator, it was much more powerful than he had imagined, if it was only Yuan Li, the other party was obviously more powerful and profound than him.

If this is the case, it will be easy to deal with, but the subtlety of the opponent's swordsmanship is still above its yuan power, and he has exhausted all the seven styles of Ruoshui swordsmanship, and he still can't take the slightest advantage.

The monks in the later stage of foundation building are really extraordinary, and I still underestimate them!

Wei Wuxian sighed at the strength of his opponent as he used his strength to defuse the star vortex that attacked one by one.

He also saw that the other party used extremely strong yuan power to drive the sword technique to the extreme, and the position of each star vortex was quite mysterious, quite similar to the seven-star sword array, but it was much more clever than the seven-star sword array.

Now there are only six star vortexes, and if one more star vortex is generated, the sword array will be completed. It will be even more difficult to deal with, so you must break through the seventh star vortex when the opponent activates it.

He took a deep breath, took control of the sword weapon with one hand, palm down with the other, and then jerked it upward.

The earth qi within a range of thirty zhang was extracted by him, turned into a yellow dragon, and opened a passage three zhang wide in the middle of the six star whirlpools, and he entered the passage almost at the same time, and the long sword in his hand flew out of his hand, directly attacking Qi Xuanzong in front of the passage.

The people in the square were shocked by this blow, but they didn't expect Wei Wuxian to have such a strange method.

Only Bai Liqi was not too surprised, he had also used similar methods when he broke through the 'Blood Shadow Ecstasy Array' that the evil cultivators didn't know about in the valley.

The late-stage foundation building monk next to him looked at him in surprise, not understanding why he had such an expression that he had known for a long time.

Bai Liqi explained: "When Senior Brother Wei was in Southern Xinjiang, he used this method to break through the formation of evil cultivators and rescue Senior Brother Yang and others. ”

"I see!" the monk next to him knew what was going on.

Qi Xuanzong was condensing the seventh star vortex, but he didn't expect Wei Wuxian to use his earth qi to rush away the six star vortex, so he let out a loud shout and stimulated the last star vortex to block it in front of him.

Wei Wuxian also knew that at the most critical moment, the Yuan Force in his body was urging to stimulate the 'Mine Ban' on the flying sword, and the Mine Prohibition was a big ban, and it needed a huge amount of Yuan Force as a backing. His Yuan Power is as thick as that of an ordinary late-stage foundation building monk, even if there is less than half of the original amount left, there is still no problem in stimulating such a prohibition of such a beginner-level lower-grade sword weapon.

Thundered...

One by one, fist-sized blue thunderballs landed within the seventh star vortex, and the two forces collided together, making a sound that could be heard even by the other thirteen peaks.

The star vortex shattered into pieces, and the thunderball also disappeared into the void, and the two people were shocked out by this force, and one of the figures actually paused in mid-air, and then continued to move forward.

The two of them were almost hand-to-hand fighting, and after a burst of smoke and dust, everyone saw only two ragged guys half-squatting on the ground, with blood stains on the corners of their mouths, and they looked like they were not lightly injured.

The deputy hall master Sun Zhimao grew his mouth, and this result was something he never expected.

Wei Wuxian straightened up and arched his hand at the other side, "Thank you Senior Brother for your advice!"

Qi Xuanzong also stood up and said the same way: "Senior brother is polite. After that, he turned to the deputy hall master Sun Zhimao and bowed and said, "Uncle Sun, the senior nephew has already tested it, so there should be no problem." ”

Sun Zhimao, the deputy hall master, said in his heart that this is not nonsense! If there is still a problem in this way, then there will be no one without a problem.

"Are you alright?"

"My nephew is fine, but I have to go back to recuperate for a while, and I may not have time to come over to assist my uncle in the near future. ”

"It's okay, you go back and get some rest. Deputy hall master Sun Zhimao saw the eagerness in his eyes, presumably he had gained a lot after this competition!

Bai Liqi walked up to Wei Wuxian and laughed: "Senior Brother Wei, you are really amazing, you actually fought a draw with Senior Brother Qi!

Wei Wuxian saw that it was him, and squeezed out a little smile and said, "Senior Brother Baili, do you think there is no problem with the little brother?"

Others don't know about this competition, he knows in his heart that he is still a step worse than Qi Xuanzong, the other party has obviously been controlling the rhythm of the entire competition, constantly putting pressure on himself, it is the last blow, and the other party can also avoid it in other ways, there is no need to carry that blow.

He didn't quite understand this, but being able to fight with such a master was a very rare experience in itself, especially the Seven Spins Sword Technique, which was really unimaginably powerful, and if the sword formation was formed, he would definitely have no way to break it.

At this time, the deputy hall master Sun Zhimao came over, he glanced at Wei Wuxian deeply, I heard that it was the newly accepted junior brother of Senior Brother Beigong, no wonder he had such a strong strength.

The Outer Affairs Hall he is in charge of mainly manages the outer disciples of the Tianshui Sect, and there are thousands of disciples in the inner sect of the Tianshui Sect, where did he know Wei Wuxian, who had just entered the inner gate a year ago.

"Okay, you've proven that you have the strength to take on the task of the ground list, find me in three days!" After speaking, he turned and left.

"Senior brother, why do you have to go on a mission again?" asked Bailiqi curiously.

"If you don't enter the true tradition, you will be able to do it! I can't help it!" Wei Wuxian sighed.

Bai Liqi is also a person from the past, of course, he knows the reason, nodded and said: "Senior brother is so diligent, presumably this trip will be successful, here, I wish my junior brother in advance to become a true disciple!"

"Thank you senior brother Jiyan, the younger brother will definitely live up to expectations. ”

Almost instantly, the news that Wei Wuxian and Qi Xuanzong had reached a draw spread throughout the Tianshui Sect, and now wherever he goes, as long as he reports his name, it will definitely attract the attention of other fellow sects.

And his performance in the water world a year ago was also revealed, word of mouth, and some people who had never seen him thought that he was a stranger with a height and two hands thicker than feet.

Only abnormal people have the possibility of fighting with Qi Xuanzong in the early stage of foundation building and Qi Xuanzong in the late stage of foundation building.

Seven days later, another news was even more shocking, Qi Xuanzong actually retreated and began to impact the bottleneck of the Jindan period, it is said that because of the new understanding in the fighting method with Hui Yanfeng Weihua, the bottleneck that has been unbreakable has been loosened, and after seven days of cultivation, he finally made up his mind to retreat and condense the Jindan.

Of course, Wei Wuxian didn't know all this, because at this moment he was already on his way east.

There were more than 1,000 miles from Tianshui Sect to the East China Sea, and he rented a carriage and disguised himself as a merchant to set off with several other merchants who were going to the East China Sea.

There is still more than a year to go, so there is no need to rush so much, and it is also a pleasure to listen to a few merchants tell interesting stories about the East China Sea along the way.

Several merchants only knew that he was the young owner of Tianbao Trading House, and it was the first time to do business, of course, they knew in their hearts that this prince was also a businessman, and he was clearly traveling.

Tianbao Trading House is now one of the largest trading houses in the Xia Kingdom, and it is said that the boss behind the scenes is the King of Northern Yan, so although several merchants don't think much of him, they are still very friendly to travel with him.

They were accompanied by more than a dozen trucks, all of which were in short supply in the East China Sea, and as a merchant, they would never tolerate the empty convoy, and after these materials were sold, they were enough to pay for the travel expenses and labor, and all the profits from the goods brought from the East China Sea could fall into their own pockets.
