Chapter 13: Sect Contest (1)
Time flies, and the Imperial Sword Villa sect has become lively recently. The number of people who came to the Treasure Pavilion to purchase increased almost twice as much. In addition to practicing behind closed doors, Liu Yiwen also occasionally shuttled between the Sword Casting Pavilion and Muming Zhenfang City. Every time he returned to the Sword Casting Pavilion, he found that there were more and more disciples who came here to forge magic weapons, which increased the tension even more than he wanted to come.
On this day, he was cultivating in the quiet room when he suddenly heard someone calling him outside the door.
As soon as he collected the exercises, he walked out of the secret room and came out the door. I saw Qi Xiongzheng looking at him with a smile on his face and said, "Senior Brother Liu, after receiving a message from Senior Aunt Yufeng, three days later, all the disciples in the late stage of Qi refining will go to the main hall of Yuquan Peak to meet Master Yan and listen to the instructions. ”
Liu Yiwen, the great name of Master Yan, had already heard of it, and that was the predecessor of the Jindan period of the Yuquan Mountain Range. This young and old man has been concerned about mundane things, and he is bent on pursuing the path of immortality, and he doesn't know why he wants to summon these low-level disciples.
Liu Yiwen's heart moved: "Senior brother, do you know what happened when the ancestor summoned you?"
Qi Xiong replied crisply: "It should be related to the sect competition in a month, and by the way, encourage the disciples of this peak to cultivate diligently." ”
Liu Yiwen suddenly knew in his heart that this senior brother participated in the last competition, so he was no stranger to this. So he continued, "And when are we leaving?"
Qi Xiong said: "Let's go together in the morning in three days!"
Liu Yiwen said happily: "Okay, then there is Senior Brother Lao!"
Qi Xiong bowed his hand to him and said, "Senior Brother Liu, I still have to inform the other junior brothers and sisters to leave!" Liu Yiwen looked at Qi Xiong's distant back and fell into deep thought.
After half a burnt incense, he was about to return to the secret room when he turned his head and saw Wen Tao walking towards him. He greeted with a smile and said, "Senior Brother Wen, you're here!"
I hadn't seen Senior Brother Wen for a while, he looked more calm, his eyes were shining, and his cultivation had faintly reached the peak of the late stage. Wen Tao greeted Liu Yiwen and quipped, "How is it? Are you going to participate in the sect competition?"
When the little junior brother in front of him first met, he was looking for a beginner because of his lack of foundation, but he was really surprised by the speed of cultivation in the past ten years. Now that he is only twenty-three years old, he is already in the late stage of cultivation, and he is a little faster than himself, how can he not let himself be amazed?
Liu Yiwen smiled embarrassedly and said, "Senior brother, you still like to make fun of me! Although I have the intention of signing up, I am not going to the top ten, I just want to accumulate some experience in fighting with others." ”
Then he smiled and said, "Senior brother, although I don't know how well you have cultivated in the past two years, this competition is very important to you! Although you and I are not biological brothers, I have long treated you like a brother." If there is anything that needs to be contributed, just speak!" In the end, he actually had a trace of melancholy, this time he was not optimistic about Senior Brother Wen.
Wen Tao said in a deep voice: "Although the cultivation speed of the junior brother is fast, he is not arrogant or impatient, and he will become a great weapon in the future." As a brother, I also know that it is not easy to enter the top ten this time. But I'm already thirty-one, and I won't have a chance to do it next year. So I'm going to give it my all!"
In the early morning three days later, there were ten people standing in front of Shen Zhaodong Cave Mansion in Yuquan Mountain, and Liu Yiwen was naturally among them. Among the several people, there was a man with deep eye sockets, and his eyes were deep, and it was Yang Qiyin, the sixth senior brother who did not show up at the last meeting. This person actually made him feel a sense of déjà vu, but he couldn't remember it for a while. The other is Yin Siling, a new disciple of the master two years ago, this woman has apricot eyebrows and apricot eyes, and always has a warm smile on her face, which reminds people that this woman must be everyone's best girl.
Qi Xiong saw that the people had arrived, and Qi smiled at Feng Shi beside him: "Senior Brother Feng and Senior Sister Yin are here, just stay in the cave mansion to take care of one or two, and we will go back later." ”
Feng Shi said sourly: "I didn't expect Senior Brother Liu to make rapid progress, and his cultivation is already in the late stage!"
Liu Yiwen hurriedly said modestly: "Senior brother praises it!"
Ye Xiumei smiled and said, "Who told you not to practice in normal times?"
Qi Xiong said in a deep voice: "Senior Brother Feng, you can't just see that Senior Brother Liu's cultivation speed is faster than you, but you should also see the hard work and sweat behind him. Although the master is not there, you can't be too slack. ”
Feng Shi's face stiffened, and he sneered: "Yes, Senior Brother! I just admire Senior Brother Liu, and I will definitely cultivate diligently in the future." ”
Qi Xiong nodded, turned around and said, "Let's go!"
For a moment, the light lit up in mid-air and flew straight in a certain direction.
Half an hour later, they came to the main peak, Yuquan Peak. This peak is tall and straight, the strange peak is dangerous, there is a huge platform built according to the mountain situation at the mountainside, and there are already many figures standing on it at this time.
Several people fell down at the platform and were taken aside by Qi Xiong to stand still. At this time, there was still about half an hour before the agreed time, and Liu Yiwen began to look at the people on this platform. As he watched, a familiar figure walked out of a group of people not far away and came towards them.
"Hello junior brothers and sisters!" the man greeted them.
Liu Yiwen and the others bowed their hands together and said, "Senior Brother Sun is good!" It turned out that this person was Senior Brother Sun Huo, who went to the Hundred Beasts Mountain to hunt demon beasts together a few years ago. A few years have passed, and he has not succeeded in condensation, which is really a sigh!
After he said hello, he pulled Wen Tao to the side and whispered. After a moment of talking, the man turned back to where he had been.
After a while, seven or eight more people came to the platform, the leader of which was Aunt Yufeng, followed by a few disciples. He only knew Li Mingzhu alone, and this woman's face was as cold as before. Qi Xiong and a few people hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
After a cold noise, Yufeng took her disciples and a few of them to stand together, and Senior Brother Qi chatted with her. Wen Tao and Li Mingzhu said hello, and the latter just nodded slightly, as if he was not interested in chatting.
A quarter of an hour later, the square was already full of nearly a hundred people, and Yuan Sulan, who he was looking forward to, also came, but he was not embarrassed to say hello, just looked at it a few times and stood in place. There are also a few acquaintances here, Senior Brother Xu, Wei Song, and Min Zhu are also among them. When Senior Brother Xu saw him, he was obviously stunned for a moment, obviously surprised that he could enter the late-stage realm so quickly.
While everyone was chatting here, the two large stone doors at the end of the platform slowly opened outward. A majestic voice came, making everyone's hearts tremble.
"All the disciples of Yuquan Peak have entered the hall!"
There is no need to think that this person must be the only Jindan period monk in Yuquan Peak, surnamed Yan, and the ancestor. The crowd outside immediately bowed to the order and lined up in two teams to stream in from the left and right. Liu Yiwen followed Senior Brother Wen and slowly entered the main hall and stood at the back of the line.
The main hall here is extremely wide, and there are 100 zhang square. In the center of the main hall, there are more than a dozen steps, and the seven elders of the condensation stage stand on the steps in order. The only one he knew, Master Yufeng, was standing in the third place on the right-hand side. On the platform of the stairs was a chair on which a middle-aged man was seated. He looked no more than forty years old, with shiny black hair. His complexion was ruddy and shiny, his eyes were bright, and he had a beard that was more than three inches long. This man was not the crane-haired old man Liu Yiwen imagined, which made him a little stunned, but just by looking at this person's demeanor, he knew that it was Master Yan.
