Chapter 64: Chance Encounter

At a regular meeting of the elders of the sect, the head of the sect, Yizheng Zhenren, announced in public that three months later, a competition within the sect would be held with the participation of disciples below the foundation building period, so as to select twenty disciples to participate in the Phantom Sword Trial in half a year.

Unlike the previous regulations that only those who can register for more than ten levels of qi refining can sign up, this competition does not restrict the cultivation of the registered disciples; the same as in the past, the competition is still different from the Phantom Sect and the Sword Sect, and the Phantom Sect and the Sword Sect respectively hold a selection competition to select the top ten disciples under their respective sects. Of course, the disciples of the Illusion Sect and the Sword Sect could not participate in each other's selection competitions. At the same time, it is stipulated that the two trials will be held at the same time.

As soon as the news was released, it immediately caused a great sensation in the sect, you know, the last time the competition was a hundred years ago.

Although there is no reward set for this competition in the sect, being able to become one of the top 20 disciples in the sect is not only an extremely honorable thing, but it will also be valued by the top level of the sect, and more cultivation resources will be allocated, which will be of great benefit to future cultivation. You must know that no matter which sect it is, this cultivation resource is very scarce.

However, the biggest benefit of becoming a top twenty disciple in the sect is not the above. Because, Yizheng Zhenren announced at the same time that only the top twenty disciples were eligible to participate in the Phantom Sword Trial two months later, and this Phantom Sword Trial was also once in a hundred years.

According to the previous practice, as long as the disciples who participated in the Phantom Sword Trial could get a lot of rewards. And among these rewards, the one that everyone wants the most is that Tsukidan. You must know that more than ninety percent of the monks are trapped in the Qi refining period for the rest of their lives because they do not have the Zhuji Dan, and they can't go any further. Therefore, this inner small competition is also called the foundation building test, and the phantom sword trial is also called the foundation building trial.

If you have great luck in the Phantom Sword Trial and get the top three, in addition to the Zhuji Dan, each person will get an additional magic weapon reward, you know, the disciples in the Qi refining period, there are almost no magic weapons. And the importance of the magic weapon for a monk is self-evident. The power of this magic weapon cannot be stopped with just a few spells and runes.

However, there are both benefits and risks, not to mention that when you participate in the Zongnai competition, if you are not careful, you will be seriously injured by your opponent. And in the Phantom Sword Trial, there is a risk of falling. Judging from the experience of previous Phantom Sword Trials, the probability of being able to escape and come back alive is less than eighty percent.

Although there is a risk of injury in participating in the competition, and there is a possibility of falling in participating in the Phantom Sword Trial, everyone who gets the news is very encouraged and eager to try, and they are carefully preparing for the competition in the sect in three months.

In fact, this is not difficult to understand, rather than being trapped in the Qi refining period for the rest of your life and waiting for death, it is better to give it a go, and maybe you can fight for a chance to build a foundation.

When Xiang Qi heard the news, it was already two days before the registration deadline.

After learning the news of the sect's Xiaobi and the Phantom Sword Trial, what was completely different from everyone else was that Xiang Qi was extremely calm, and it was really difficult for him to make a decision on whether to sign up for the sect's Xiaobi or not.

In fact, this small comparison within the sect was not attractive to Xiang Qi, so he didn't care about the false name of the top ten in the sect! What attracted him was the Zhuji Dan and the magic weapon reward. Although he already has two Tsukidans, it is difficult to build a foundation with the inferior spirit body of his inferior spirit body, and if there is one more Tsukidan, maybe he will be able to build a successful foundation, after all, the possibility of building a foundation has increased.

Since Xiang Qi cultivated immortals, he had a deep understanding of the importance of auxiliary pills when he advanced, basically, every time he advanced, he couldn't do without a large number of pills. There have been many living examples of successful advancement by taking one more service. Therefore, it is self-evident that having one more Tsukidan will help you build a successful foundation.

In addition, although the current level of Xiang Qi's alchemy is quite high and experienced, he does not dare to try to refine the Zhuji Dan arrogantly, this is because, first, he does not have the Dan recipe for refining the Zhuji Dan, and second, he is an entry-level alchemist, refining the Condensation Pill and the Qi Condensing Pill is okay, how dare he try to refine the Zhuji Dan! You know, with the power of the Phantom Sword Sect, the annual output of this Zhuji Dan is only more than 20 pieces!

There are five or six hundred disciples waiting for Zhuji every year, so how can it be his turn! If you want to get Zhuji Dan through other means, it is even more difficult than ascending to the sky. And pinning my hopes on the opening of the next Phantom Sword Secret Realm, I'm afraid it will take hundreds of years. The lifespan of a disciple in the ordinary Qi refining period is only more than a hundred years, and I'm afraid no one can afford to wait.

Therefore, after this analysis, Xiang Qi still tends to participate in the small competition within the sect. But he wasn't much sure that he would be able to get the top ten in the sect. Fortunately, the overall strength of the disciples of the Sword Sect is weaker than that of the disciples of the Phantom Sect, if he is a disciple of the Phantom Sect, it is estimated that he will not even have a trace of hope.

Xiang Qi didn't care much about the accidental injury in the competition, as well as the probability of a fall in the trial, because he understood that opportunities and risks coexisted. If you don't have this basic adventurous spirit, how can you reap that great benefit?

Of course, more importantly, Xiang Qi is still quite confident in his own strength.

Xiang Qi is a very cheerful person, and since he decided to participate in the small competition in the sect, he immediately took action. He cleaned up briefly, went out to the west, and went straight to Sword Immortal Peak to sign up.

In order to facilitate the registration of disciples, and in order to ensure the purity of Sword Immortal Peak, the Sword Sect set up this registration place at the mountain gate at the foot of Sword Immortal Peak.

A stone table, two round stone chairs, a roster, that's all the belongings of the registration office. Two deacon disciples, one fat and one thin, wearing Sword Sect costumes, sat on the round stone chair, only to see that the slightly fat deacon disciple was holding a cup of steaming spiritual tea in one hand and a sunspot in the other, while the thin deacon disciple was holding a white seed in one hand, and the other hand was placed on a cricket cage, knocking it from time to time, and there was a pleasant "squeak" sound in the cage.

Approaching the registration deadline, everyone has already signed up, and there are very few people like Xiang Qi who are late to realize it, so it's no wonder that they will be so leisurely at this moment.

And when Xiang Qi arrived, the two of them were fighting over a certain move. Xiang Xuan's divine thoughts swept over these two people, and they were all eleventh level Qi refining cultivators.

"This junior brother, can you let me sign up first? I have something urgent to deal with. Xiang Qi was about to interrupt the two, but heard a voice like heaven.

Xiang Qi had never heard such a crisp and pleasant beautiful voice, he couldn't help but turn his head back, only to see a stunning girl with red lips and bright teeth and snowy skin walking towards him quickly, this woman was tall, dressed in a red shirt, with a pair of eyes like copper bells, always smiling.

"Senior Sister Fang!" Xiang Qi's face showed surprise, and he smiled at this woman. This woman is Fang Xiaoqing, who had contact with him before.

"Hey, it's Senior Brother Xiang! It's too coincidental!" Fang Xiaoqing looked at it, only to find that the person in front of her was Xiang Qi, so her eyes flashed with surprise, and she said in a coquettish voice.

She was bent on signing up to go somewhere quickly, but she didn't pay attention to Xiang Qi with her back to her, and it was no wonder that she didn't recognize him.
