Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Four Sects of Martial Arts
"Lu Li, what are you still doing! Hurry up, don't grind! I finally have such a chance to participate in such a grand event, if I can get a ranking, I will build a foundation, and when the time comes, I will enter the inner gate and cultivate diligently, and I will have a bright future! I am not like you, there are people to cover!"
It's still that compound, surrounded by wings, or that ancient pine, covering the sky and the sun, simple and monotonous.
Under the ancient pine, leaning against the trunk of the tree, there is a figure sitting upright, looking lonely, it is Lu Li.
It's been more than a month, and Lu Li hasn't gotten any more than half of the old man's message, as if the world has evaporated, several times, Lu Li wanted to sneak into the Shenxiao Cave, find out, and ask the purple-robed old man what was going on, but they were all discovered by those patrolling disciples, and this time, the leader disciple of the patrol finally couldn't bear it anymore and sent him directly to the Punishment Hall Sneaking Zi, and finally Yu Chu came forward to let him be spared punishment. Lu Li remembered Yu Chu's disappointed eyes when he looked at him at the end, and what didn't come to his heart was a dull pain.
"It turns out that I'm just a wasted person, and without their support, I'm nothing!"
Lu Li's face was pale, and he was depressed, I was afraid that he didn't know what year it was, so it can be seen that in his heart, he was still quite dependent on Mu Lao!
At this time, the sun had just appeared, and the door of a wing room on the west side opened, and there stood a young man with a rough face, fluffy hair, and a pimple on his face.
Lu Li raised his head, his pale face regained some blood, shook his head, and said secretly: "This Zhuo Bufan, always so surprised!" Since that day, Lu Li's relationship with this Zhuo Bufan has become closer and further, and this Zhuo Bufan has become more and more unscrupulous towards Lu Li in words and deeds, which is very happy to see that Lu Li is not a person of that kind of power, it really regards this Zhuo Bufan as a friend!
The grand event that Zhuo Bufan said is the four-door martial arts held every ten years in Yuxia Mountain.
The Four Sects Huiwu is a grand event held by the four major sects of Yuxia Mountain in order to cultivate disciples of the foundation.
Because in the past 10,000 years, the flow of the divine energy between heaven and earth above Zhongzhou has become more and more serious, and the heavenly and earthly treasures cultivated by heaven and earth in this Yuxia Mountain have become more and more scarce, so there are not many materials used to refine the foundation building pill, so in the major sects, even the inner disciples, most of those who are gifted have stayed in the innate and backward realm and failed to build the foundation. This is also why on the battlefield of the spirit beast that day, the old man of the god could push the Yuxiao faction to the opposite side of the three major sects with a nonsensical statement that he monopolized the Red Flame Fruit, and in this Yuxia Mountain, and even Zhongzhou, resources are everything!
At the beginning, the three major sects used this as a threat, forcing the sneakers to give up a large amount of resources from the spirit beast in the valley, carrying an unwarranted black cauldron, and returning empty-handed!
In general, the four major sects are almost the same in terms of overall strength, if any one of them wants to monopolize these resources, the other three will definitely not agree, and once the war is provoked, it will only cheapen those small forces that want to take advantage of the situation, so the four major sects will not do such a stupid thing and want to monopolize these resources. So there are these four sects of martial arts, all the disciples of the four major sects who have entered the middle stage of the innate realm can already participate in this conference, and the top 20 in the conference can obtain the qualification of building the foundation! And the first of each session of the conference will be accepted by the head of their own sect as a closed disciple and personally guided, so those unknown sect disciples want to make a splash in these four sect martial arts, it can be said that as long as they can get a good result in the conference, it will be like a step to the sky, and they will go more smoothly on the road of cultivating the gods!
In the past, this conference was only allowed to participate in the inner disciples of the four major sects, and outer disciples like Lu Li and Zhuo Bufan were not qualified to participate. But because of the slow development of some small forces in Yuxia Mountain over the years, they also made some of their own voices, they think that as a member of Yuxia Mountain, they should also share resources, and the heads of the four major sects also agreed to give these small forces the qualifications to participate from this session after deliberation, but these small sects have to pay a large amount of Shenyuan Stone as the registration fee for the martial arts, but those small forces also feel understandable and gladly accept.
It's just that they will think that even if they participate in the conference, it will be impossible to get a good ranking, because just fighting for the foundation, they don't know how much difference they have with the four major sects, I am afraid that when the time comes, they will pay a large amount of Shenyuan stones, and there will be no place for them in those twenty rankings. It's just to add some color to the four major sects!
It is precisely because of the addition of these small forces that the restrictions of the four major sects on the internal and external sects have also been relaxed, so Zhuo Bufan has the qualification to participate in the competition, because he just entered the middle stage of the innate realm not long ago!
On the contrary, it was Lu Li, although he took the Red Flame Fruit, the martial arts path was still in the early stage of the Innate Realm, and there was no inch, while the Divine Dao still had no achievements, wandering at the door, and he had not even touched the threshold of the Innate Realm, he even suspected that the Red Flame Fruit that the Red Flame Bird and the Green Crocodile had earned with their lives was just an ordinary mortal fruit, which was useless at all, or rather, that Mu Lao did not let him take the Red Flame Fruit at all!
And in Zhuo Bufan's words, this time he took Lu away to see the world.
As far as Lu Li was concerned, he was really a little curious about this four-door martial art, so he thought it was a distraction, and agreed to go with Zhuo Bufan to see it.
......
"Lu Li, look, it's really magnificent!"
Lu Li felt that he had gone to Zhuo Bufan very early, but when they arrived at the peak of Yuxia Mountain, the place where they met, they found that there were many people who had gone earlier than them.
It seems that most people have the same idea as Zhuo Bufan, but the people who have such thoughts are either the outer disciples of the major sects or those from the small sects, but those big sect disciples and big people Lu Li has not seen any of them, not to mention other sects, they have seen the head of the Yuxiao faction of their own family a few times, and they are also familiar.
"Hehe, it seems that someone will give you Tsukidan if they come early!"
Lu Li shook his head and smiled bitterly at the bustling and growing number of disciples of various sects.
Looking at the first line of sky, the natural open area, the first to reach the peak, at first glance, there is no edge in sight. It will give people a sense of boundless vastness.
Of course, this is just an illusion of perspective, but in fact, it is only a few hundred feet wide.
There are dozens of square stone platforms scattered on the open space, which are square and about ten zhang wide. I think it is only used by the disciples of various factions to compete.
I saw that there were four stone figures standing at the four corners of each stone platform, looking at the costumes, they were all human monks, and at first glance, they were lifelike as if four living people were standing there.
This, Lu Li had heard Zhuo Bufan mention, it was the Four Cultivation Binding Spirit Array, a relatively low-level formation, which would only be opened during the fight, forming an enchantment the size of a stone platform, which could resist any attack from the monks below the foundation. And the purpose of this is so that the disciples of each faction will not interfere with each other during the competition, and at the same time, it can also test whether the disciples participating in the martial arts are hiding their strength, for example, there were once major sects in order to obtain more Zhuji Dan sent a large number of Zhuji disciples to participate in the competition, and finally that incident caused a stir in Yuxia Mountain, and almost provoked a war between the four major sects. In the end, I don't know for what reason, this matter is over, but the big sect that cheated was also directly disqualified from participating in the next martial arts.
Looking at the periphery of those stone platforms, there is a grandstand in the east, west, north and south, and the stone tables and chairs are distributed in a neat and orderly manner.
Looking at the stone platform in the middle, it was crowded, if it wasn't for Zhuo Bufan urging Lu Li to come earlier, I'm afraid they wouldn't even be able to come up to this line of heaven!
And look at this momentum, the number of people will continue to increase!
"Lingyun Sect Master Qingling has arrived!"
"The Yuxiao Sect is in charge of teaching Yuxiao!"
"The master of the Shenxing Gate, the old man of Tianxing, has arrived!"
"Sect Master of the Underworld Sect has no Yan here!" Just as Lu Li was quietly looking at this line of heaven, he heard a voice clearly entering the ears of every disciple under the stone platform under the wrapping of the power of the Divine Yuan, as if it was on the side, but when you looked carefully, you didn't know where the person who spoke was located. Lu is slightly in the middle, this is a strong man in the fetal breath realm!
With the disappearance of this voice, the bigwigs of the four major sects finally came belatedly.
"The people in the east stand are the people of the Shenxing Gate, and the short and sturdy old man with a gloomy face in the middle is the master of the Shenxing Gate! The strong man in the middle of the fetal rest realm, the five people around him are the protectors of the Shenxing Gate, called the five elders of the Shenxingmen. The old man of Tianxing of this Shenxing Gate is a famous smiling tiger in this Yuxia Mountain, with different hearts and mouths, he is an extremely good person, and the relationship with my Yuxiao Sect is not very good!"
Lu Li listened to Zhuo Bufan's introduction, his eyes swept over the stands on the east side, and he kept in mind the face of the old man who walked that day.
"This Zhuo Bufan knows a lot, and I don't know where he learned about it. ”
Lu Li couldn't help but glance at Zhuo Bufan again!
"The group of women in the south stand is the people of the Lingyun Sect, don't underestimate them just because they are women, that group of women is precisely the most powerful of the four major sects!"
"Do you see the woman at the front who looks like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl? That is the sect master of the Lingyun Sect, it is rumored that she was extremely talented back then, she built a foundation at the age of twenty, and she was famous for her name at that time, and she was praised by outsiders! As for the geometry of her strength now, it is not clear, but it must not be lower than the realm of our sect leader! Not only that, but it is also rumored that there are even more powerful existences in the Lingyun Sect! Therefore, for the other three major sects, there is a faint fear of the Lingyun Sect, but this group of women has always been low-key, but they have not interfered too much in the affairs of this Yuxia Mountain, they rarely walk outside, and they have been practicing penance in the sect for many years, so the outside world does not know much about them, but their strength is recognized by everyone, as for where the basis comes from, there is no way to know!"
Unlike other sect leaders, who were old, the female sect leader of the Lingyun Sect was a very young-looking woman.
Dressed in a blue emerald smoke shirt, his breath is like a quiet orchid, and his body is plump but there is no trace of bloated! A piece of white silk is wrapped in his arms, floating lightly at will, immortal mortals! What makes people feel even more incredible is that he actually has a sixteen or seventeen-year-old demonic face, his skin is like a condensed jade, and he is extremely young! With such an identity, it makes Lu Li feel weird!
"Too young! yes, too young!"
"Then why is the Lingyun Sect Master so young now?"
Lu Li asked Zhuo Bufan the doubts in his heart!
"As long as there is a skill in rejuvenating the face, it is not too difficult for the cultivator to maintain a youthful appearance, but ......"
"Hey, hey!"
Zhuo Bufan smiled strangely at Lu Li, leaned into Lu Li's ear and said, "It is rumored that this Lingyun Sect Master specializes in absorbing the Yuan Yang of male god cultivators to maintain his appearance before entering the Yuan Infant Realm!"
Lu Li's brows jumped, and he suddenly remembered the tragic situation of Yi Hu when he was in Luoxia Town, and a red shadow couldn't help but appear in his mind, and he was distracted for a while.
"Is she okay?"
"Hehe, it's good if you know, don't go out and talk nonsense, otherwise I'll both die!"
Na Zhuo Bufan didn't notice Lu Li's abnormality, and after speaking, he didn't forget to tell Lu Lidao.
Lu Li bowed his head inaudibly, although he didn't believe Zhuo Bufan's words very much, but there was a trace of disdain in his eyes when he looked at the south stand over there!
"The people in the stands behind us are the people of the Underworld Sect......"
When Zhuo Bufan was about to introduce Lu Li to the people of the Underworld Sect closest to them, it was the voice from before that that suddenly sounded.
"The four sects have officially begun, and the disciples of the sect are in place!"
These four martial arts have finally begun!
