Chapter 559: Dabi Again
Immediately, several people discussed it and decided to start the first round of testing in half a month. Anyone who passed the test last time can go straight to the second round. Monks who are above the path can also enter the second round without examination. All Earth Immortal Ancestors can enter the third round. In the first round of the test, the first 3,000 students will pass the test, and in the second round of the test, the top 300 students will be selected.
Each ranking can be converted into points, for example, the first place in alchemy is counted as 3,000 points, the second place is 2,999 points, and the third thousandth place is only one point. Then the results of the four competitions will be superimposed to form the final ranking of the four competitions. As in previous years, only the top 60 overall and the top 10 in each event will be able to climb the altar. In addition, even if he is the ancestor of the peak of the earth immortal, or the head of the family, he is not qualified to ascend to the altar. The person in charge of the officiating priest will be the one who ranks first in the total number of points.
Qin Di feels that such competition rules have a good side and a bad side.
The good thing is that through such a big competition, it can indeed promote the interest of all disciples in refining the Dan Weapon Rune Array. The bad thing is that the disciples focus all their energy on studying and cultivating the four true arts, but neglect to practice the killing skills, and in the long run, there is no way to ensure the long-term prosperity and stability of the sect. It's like being lame and walking on only one leg.
Therefore, he made a suggestion to see if he could add a competition, that is, martial arts competition!
When the four hall masters heard this, they all shook their heads: "Master, we all know that this is a good thing, but it is very difficult to operate in concrete terms! If it is a low-level disciple who competes on the stage, the result can be controlled." But if the monks above the step level fight, then the movement will be too great, not only will it cause casualties, but it will also break the atmosphere of harmony among the disciples of this sect, what can I do?"
"Yes, if a big competition causes many casualties among disciples, then the gain outweighs the loss?"
Qin Di couldn't help frowning and asked, "Do you know if other sects have similar martial arts competitions?"
"The Demon Sect is the most prevalent in this! The Demon Clan also likes to do this. However, the internal competition of the Immortal Cultivation Sect was much more gentle. For example, in the Wanjian Gate, a boulder is placed a hundred miles away during the competition, and then the disciples are each released to see who can split the boulder, or pierce the boulder to a depth of several zhang, so as to determine the winner or loser of the competition. ”
"The same is true of the Divine Arrow Gate, five hundred miles away, set up a very thick wooden plaque, and then let the disciples shoot arrows to see who shoots accurately, into the deep wood. ”
"But our Four Holy Sects are different. Our disciple majored in cultivating the Dan Weapon Runic Array, relying on the study of these four skills to figure out the laws of the Heavenly Dao, but only then could he advance. Therefore, the disciples used the skill of killing as a side practice, and they also had their own means when fighting. Some people are good at using talismans, as long as they secretly throw out the spirit talisman in their hand, they can restrain the opponent; some people are good at refining poison pills and using poison pills to defeat the enemy; and some people like to use formations to trap the enemy......"
"Even if you use the spirit treasure magic weapon to fight, it is all varied, there are all kinds of things, some people like to use swords, some people like to use knives, and some people like to use gourds...... There are many varieties, and if you don't take the risk and fight directly, there is no way to tell the winner from the loser. And if you fight directly, you can't control the outcome, and it will inevitably cause a lot of casualties!
"Moreover, there will be a problem in the martial arts competition, that is, the cultivation of the high realm has an advantage, so many disciples of this sect, if all of them participate in the competition, the final winner must be the Earth Immortal Ancestor, followed by the Monk of the Harmony Dao...... Whoever has a high realm and a high-level spirit treasure in his hand will be able to win! Since this is the case, there is no need to compare, just directly investigate the realm and the level of the spirit treasure......
"Alas, this is not easy to do! Otherwise, the constitution of Dabi would have been revised a long time ago...... Boss, do you have a good way to say that everyone is totaling?"
Qin Di thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but shake his head: "I don't have a very good way, since this is the case, then I won't change it for the time being, but please think about it after you go back, and strive to add this content before the next sect sacrifice." ”
The four hall masters bowed and left.
Then the vigorous big competition officially began.
Every time there is a big competition, it is the most lively time of the Four Holy Sects, because the monk's competitive heart will never change, and the result of the competition determines the position of standing during the big sacrifice, the closer to the altar, the easier it is to accept the smallpox falling from the sky, so as to obtain great benefits, if you are lucky, maybe suddenly increase your power for eight hundred years, which is also something that has happened.
The higher the skill of the monk, the longer the theoretical lifespan. For example, if you can only cultivate to the end of the void and have a lifespan of 10,000 years, but if you can take on more smallpox during the big festival, you will have the hope of crossing the threshold of the true monarch of the path and have a lifespan of 100,000 years. It seems that the realm is only one level away, but the gap is too big!
Every time there is a big competition, there will be a lot of spectators, mainly disciples of the Four Holy Sects, but there are also many outsiders who want to come and watch. In this regard, Qin Di also made instructions, directly arranged the first round of testing in Xiangyang Valley, and then sold tickets to outsiders to observe.
The location of Xiangyang Valley is relatively open, which can accommodate many disciples to compete at the same time, and can also accommodate many people to watch on the mountain next to it. As the saying goes, it's just right.
Qin Di felt that this kind of large-scale competition was also an opportunity to promote the reputation of the Four Holy Sects, just like a military parade, which could not only stimulate the morale of the disciples in the sect, but also show strength to outsiders.
There are many sects around Lingshan, and there are countless disciples, and almost every sect has to organize people to engage in the refining of the Dan Weapon Rune Array. Many people are interested in the four arts of cultivation. No matter who you are, as long as you embark on the path of cultivating the truth, you will be exposed to these contents. Therefore, when I heard that the Four Holy Sects were open for observation, many people came to "hula" to watch.
This made the Four Holy Sects sell a lot of tickets, making friends and earning spirit stones.
Several hall masters were very satisfied, and the deacon in charge of this matter below was even more happy.
"Haha, I didn't expect that a big competition would still earn spirit stones!"
"The boss is so clever!
"In my opinion, the head of Qin dares to do this. Only he is superb, able to suppress all the guests, so that even those with ill intentions dare not cause trouble. If it had been before, we wouldn't have dared to open up and observe! We could only open the Great Array and wrap the Rejuvenation Valley like a rice dumpling, for fear that someone would break in and make trouble, and even more worried that someone would take advantage of the competition to sneak attack the Four Holy Sects!"
Half a year later, the first round of testing ended, and 3,000 people were selected for each of the four competitions.
Subsequently, Qin Di announced that the second round of the competition would be transferred to the Rejuvenation Valley, and a fourth-order protective immortal array was set up over the Rejuvenation Valley, which was no longer open to all outsiders, and only a few disciples of the friendly sect were allowed to come in and watch.
The reason why he did this was because the more he competed in the future, the more intelligent the level of the alchemy refiner became, and he didn't want to leak too many refining skills, so that he would be stolen by other factions. Although the refining process is very complicated, and you can't really master the core skills at a glance, there will always be some inspiration.
Some people watched the first round of the competition and felt quite rewarding, but they couldn't watch the second round of the competition, and they couldn't help but feel itchy, scratching their ears and cheeks, and they couldn't wait to quit the original sect and join the Four Holy Sects instead!
Two months later, the second round of testing also ended. A total of four competitions, with a total of 1,200 people, stood out.
The people who lived on the top of Xianmiao Peak on weekdays, mainly Qin Di's relatives, friends and disciples, basically passed the second round. Some people also pass more than one item.
Then take a few days off and start the last ** ratio.
This time, Qin Di and all the Earth Immortals appeared in person, and the Earth Immortals were eligible to skip the first two rounds of tests and directly participate in the finals.
The first thing to start with is alchemy. Each contestant can choose the fairy grass provided by the sect or use the materials they brought. Because all the immortal herbs are very precious, and some of them cannot be found even in the treasure house of the sect, if the contestants can be allowed to bring their own, it will not only save the sect's reserves, but also stimulate the contestants to refine higher-level elixirs.
For example, alchemy immortal masters like Qin Di and Zhu Xian Yan had to challenge the fourth-order elixir, and if they relied solely on the sect to provide immortal grass, it would become very difficult. To be honest, the huge treasure trove of the sect, which has been stockpiled for many years, is not as rich as Qin Di's collection in some high-end aspects.
In this big competition, the monks from the top of Xianmiao Peak all used the immortal grass they carried, because they all followed Qin Di to climb the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth peaks of Lingshan Mountain, and collected a lot of immortal grass, even if they have been used for all these years, they have not used it up yet, and the rest is stored in their cave sky.
The level of immortal grass is high and low, and the realm of alchemy of Miao Yunjuan, Fan Yao and others is still slowly improving, in the early years of alchemy, only low-level immortal grass can be used, so what remains is often a higher-level immortal grass.
If they don't have a certain certainty, they are reluctant to waste all the high-level fairy grasses, because those fairy grasses are the ladder for future progress, and if they run out, they don't know where to find the opportunity to replenish them.
It's a pity that the Lingshan Heavenly Pillar has already collapsed, in this huge wilderness world, where else can a large amount of immortal grass be produced?
Everyone didn't know, and even Qin Di felt that it was difficult.
If there are no more immortal grasses in the original wasteland, then you can only go to the spirit world to find it.
But if you want to go to the spirit world, you must improve your skills to the peak of the earth immortal, and it is best to become a spirit immortal before you can set foot in the spirit world. Qin Di is not far from the spirit immortal, but Miao Yunjuan and the others are still only in the late stage of the merger path, and some have reached the peak of the merge path, and they are still far from the spirit immortal!
The last round of alchemy competition was very lively, and there were countless people around to watch, and it lasted for seven hundred and forty-nine days.
Some of the people who participated in the competition ended in three days, some refined for seven or nine days, and some refined for eighteen days, and these people had already completed alchemy, and only Qin Di and Zhu Xianyan were left at the scene, still sitting quietly in front of the Dan furnace.
The Dan furnaces of the two people looked simple and unpretentious, and no one knew that these two Dan furnaces were already immortal weapons.
After Zhu Xian Yan got the third-order Dan Furnace Treasure Forbidden provided by Qin Di, she carefully prepared for many years, and finally attached it to her ninth-order Spirit Treasure Pill Furnace, and then she ran to the South China Sea, found a small island with no people, and let the Dan Furnace quietly cross the catastrophe. After the catastrophe, she quickly hid in the South China Sea Immortal Palace, hid in the immortal array for more than ten years, and saw that there was no danger, before flying back to the immortal peak.
In the huge square, only two lonely people remained, sitting quietly. There are countless pairs of eyes around him.
Everyone knows that these two alchemy immortal masters may break through their previous best results, and in the last big competition, they had both refined a third-order elixir, and it was possible to refine a fourth-order elixir!
The Earth Immortal Golden Saint Win had already completed the competition, and finally refined seven third-level immortal pills. When the alchemy had just ended, he was very satisfied with his results, but looking at the head Qin Di at this moment, he had to put away his complacency.
He sighed secretly in his heart: "The head of the sect is only five thousand years old, and he has begun to refine the fourth-order elixir. And I'm more than ten times older than him, but I can only refine the third-order elixir! Alas, I can't compare with him. I should be ashamed to see him like this!"
At this moment, he saw Qin Di's body steaming all around, and the top of his head released red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple seven-colored fairy light, representing the strength of his seventh-order earth immortal, the fairy light began to flicker non-stop, and the whole person was like a dazzling seven-color fluorescent lamp, making the surrounding onlookers turn their heads and dare not look directly.
Someone shouted in surprise: "Oh, the master's realm is unstable, do you want to go crazy?"
Before the words fell, he received a slap on the top of his head: "You little rabbit cub, what nonsense are you talking about? The fairy light flickering may also mean that the head of the sect is about to advance!"
"Master, you're not right! The head of the sect has just advanced for a few years, how can he advance again at this time?"
"Dare to talk back! The head is the reincarnation of the Golden Immortal, do you know it! His advancement is like drinking cold water, there is not the slightest obstacle at all, do you understand! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"
"Master, don't hit me. Isn't that right?"
The onlookers in the Valley of Rejuvenation all looked surprised and began to talk in a low voice.
"Hey, this is not good, how can the head of the sect advance at this time, then this furnace of elixir, won't it be refined?"
"Yes, when you advance, you need to be introverted, and you can't be distracted, so you can't control the pill. ”
"Hi. It doesn't matter whether or not you can refine the elixir, as long as you can advance smoothly, the head of the sect will be an eighth-order earth immortal! Oh yes, it's really amazing! If you are an eighth-order earth immortal at such a young age, it won't take many years for you to soar in the day!"
Of course, there are also many people who keep sighing: "Alas, the head of the sect has advanced so quickly, and he can't stay in the wilderness world for a long time." I'm afraid it won't be long before he leaves us. If he leaves, what will we do with the Four Holy Sects?"
"Yes, if the head of the sect is not there, the strength of the Four Holy Sects will plummet! Who do you say can withstand the suppression of the Lingyun Palace? This matter is a headache to think about. ”
"What can I do then! Master Qin can't stay here forever, he will have to leave one day! Do you want him to be the head of the house forever? It's so beautiful!"
"Hey, according to me, Master Qin is already a high-level earth immortal, I don't know if it is possible to refine a clone, if only there could be a clone!"
"Doppelganger, do you mean one qi and three clears? It's a pity that our Four Holy Sects don't have a similar lineage. ”
"Master Qin is versatile, he has repeatedly created miracles, and he will definitely be able to figure out a way!"
