Chapter 107: Medicinal herbs are poisonous
"This test was divided into three rounds. The best performer in the three rounds is the champion of the Soul Gatherer Competition. First, the champion can get the Broken Yuan Dan. Second, the champion can make a condition to the old man. The old man will definitely carry it out, provided that the proposed conditions are reasonable and within the scope of the old man's implementation. Third, the old man will recognize him as a son-in-law. ”
After Liu Zhenhai's conditions were thrown out, the spirit gatherers present all had their eyes shining and their blood boiling, and they were already a little impatient. Of the three rewards proposed by Yoo Zhenhai, each of them is worth a fortune, especially the second one.
Liu Zhenhai is a four-grade spirit gatherer, and his connections and influence are undoubted. With the support of such a character, it can be said that there is nothing to be afraid of in the territory of the North Underworld.
"What if the champion is a girl? You can't let a girl be your old son-in-law, right?" someone asked.
"If it is a girl, Article 3 is invalid. "Anyway, my daughter is still young, and it's okay to wait a few more years. Liu Zhenhai thinks so, this time it is mainly to test the waters.
For the fairness of this competition, the old man invited two masters to be judges. Liu Zhenhai glanced at the vacant seats behind him, and the two masters did not appear.
"You all know that the superior people are not like us who do nothing all day long. They are dedicated to cultivation and don't care about the world, so it is difficult for them to find time. Let's wait. Liu Zhenhai did not give up.
"It seems that I'm late?" The space fluctuated, and Zhao Yangtian landed lightly beside the special seat, and his tattered robe and uninhibited hair made him particularly eye-catching.
"Hehe, it is the old man's honor to be able to come. Please!" Liu Zhenhai arranged a seat for Zhao Yangtian, Qianyu was very surprised, Shizun turned out to be one of the judges of this competition?!
"The old man will introduce to you, this is the Elder of the Thousand Moon Cave Heaven, Elder Zhao!" Liu Zhenhai introduced domineeringly, Zhao Yangtian waved to the spirit gatherer in the audience with a smirk, and then crossed his legs and sat in a special seat, without the slightest appearance of being a master.
"Whew!"
A golden flying sword fell from the sky and landed beside Liu Zhenhai accurately, but there was no half of a figure in sight. Everyone's eyes stayed on the flying sword, and suddenly, two figures appeared next to the flying sword like ghosts.
One is a middle-aged man, with sword eyebrows swept across and a flying sword in his eyes, and the whole person is also like a sword, with a compelling aura. The other was a young man, with a face like a crown of jade, wearing the same fiery red robe as the middle-aged man, his head held high, and there was a kind of arrogance in his eyes.
"Close!"
The middle-aged man waved his right hand, and the golden sword burrowed into his sleeve like a living thing.
"Duan Yuming?!" Seeing the arrogant young man who appeared on the high platform, Qianyu could not control his emotions, and quietly clenched his fists, not knowing what kind of strength Duan Yuming was now.
Liu Zhenhai was a little surprised, he only invited a middle-aged man, how could he bring his apprentice over? In order to avoid an embarrassing atmosphere, he still smiled and introduced: "Have you ever heard of the Fire-Cloaked Divine Sword-Wu Jian? This is the peak master from Wanyang Peak of Wanyang Holy Land, Elder Wu Jian Wu!"
"Deputy Pavilion Master Liu, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still as heroic as ever!" Wu Jian greeted with a smile, "This is the inferior - Duan Yuming." Yu Ming, this is the famous Four-Rank Soul Gathering Master that I often mention to you, Deputy Pavilion Master of Liu Zhenhai Liu!"
"The juniors have seen Deputy Pavilion Master Liu. Duan Yuming bowed.
"Sit, sit down!"
"Yo, isn't this Brother Sword? I haven't seen you for many years, but you're really getting more and more swordsman. Feeling the sword intent emanating from Wu Jian's body, Zhao Yangtian joked.
"I haven't seen you for many years, and your bad words and hurtful words still haven't changed. It's not easy for you to survive until now. Wu Jian chose to fight back and sat down next to Zhao Yangtian, Duan Yuming stood behind Wu Jian and did not sit down.
"The two masters have arrived, and the competition is about to kick off. Guys!" Liu Zhenhai shouted, and the disciples of the Gathering Spirit Pavilion began to distribute medicinal herbs, they gave each participating Soul Gathering Master a Blood Condensation Grass, due to the large number of people, it took half an hour to distribute the Blood Condensation Grass.
"This is the first round of testing. Everyone can use the blood condensation grass in their hands to refine the blood condensation seal, and they can successfully enter the second round. As soon as Liu Zhenhai's words fell, many spirit gatherers looked at each other and felt very surprised.
The Blood Condensation Seal is the simplest spirit seal, and even a beginner spirit gatherer can quickly refine the Blood Condensation Mark after a period of practice.
"It's too easy, isn't it?"
"Yes, I can refine the blood condensation seal with my eyes closed. ”
Most of the Spirit Gatherers said it was easy, and Qianyu looked at the Blood Condensation Grass in his hand and felt that things might not be so simple. As a four-rank spirit gatherer, how could Liu Zhenhai not know that the blood condensation seal was the simplest spirit seal?
Many people confidently began to refine, and in an instant, all kinds of vitality rose, and the rich medicinal fragrance spread in the square. Qianyu was not in a hurry to refine.
"Pervert, why don't you do it?" asked Liu Yiyi.
"As long as it can be successfully refined, it can pass the test, and there is no time limit. ”
"You must have other plans. Hmph, if you don't do it, the old lady won't do it, she keeps staring at you to prevent you from playing tricks. ”
Qianyu shrugged and said, "Whatever you want." ”
"Hisss, hiss......"
One by one, the medicinal herbs turned to ashes, followed by the complaints of a large group of spirit gatherers.
"How so?"
"I'm very skilled, and there are no mistakes in the refining process, so why did I fail?"
"Holy shit, I can't even refine the blood condensation seal?
As the medicinal herbs turned to ashes, these spirit gatherers could only leave with regret, and they only had one chance. There were as many as 2,000 failed spirit gatherers, and the square, which was originally more than 2,500 people, soon only had about 500 people left, which seemed to be a lot more spacious.
"So many people were eliminated in the first round of testing, and the strength of this year's spirit gatherers is not good. Wu Jian commented.
"Mainly because they don't have your sword. Zhao Yangtian joked again.
"If it's possible, I'd like to sew your mouth shut. "Wu Jian was not to be outdone.
"The old man invited the two of you just to judge, I hope you don't hurt the peace because of this. Liu Zhenhai came out to play the round, and he explained calmly. "The first round of testing seems simple, but there is actually a mystery. I think back then, when I worshipped the old man as a teacher, he used this trick to test me. At that time, I was already a second-grade spirit gatherer, but I couldn't pass the test. ”
"Isn't the blood coagulation mark the simplest dog skin plaster?" Zhao Yangtian has lived with the princess for many years, and he also knows a little about the spirit gathering technique.
"What Elder Zhao said is extremely true, but the simpler it is, the less it will attract attention. That's why so many people fail the first round of testing. Liu Zhenhai wanted to speak and stopped, Zhao Yangtian and Wu Jian both looked at him, waiting for his further explanation.
"All it takes is a Blood Condensation Grass and an entry-level Spirit Gathering Technique to refine a Blood Clotting Seal, and that's true. It's a pity that they ignore the most important point. ”
"Is there a problem with the medicinal herbs?" Zhao Yangtian guessed.
"That's right. Liu Zhenhai nodded with satisfaction, "The blood coagulation grass distributed by the old man to all the participating spirit gatherers is poisonous. No matter how skilled their Soul Gathering skills were, the Blood Clotting Grass would turn to ashes. ”
