Chapter 37: The Day of Tabi
In a square at the foot of the highest peak of the Nine Shadows Sect, a large group of monks stood in the dark.
At the end of the square is a huge palace with a splendid atmosphere.
This palace is called the Nine Shadows Palace, which is the main hall of the Nine Shadows Sect and the main event of the Sect of Commerce, and it is also the location of the chief rudder of the Nine Shadows Sect. However, this is not the fundamental place of the Nine Shadows Sect, the real fundamental place is the main hall where the real people of the Nine Shadows live.
This is a meeting place.
In the middle of the square, there were twenty male and female monks, the highest of which had cultivated to the ninth order of the Soul Condensation Period, and the lowest one was only the fourth order of the Soul Condensation Period. There is no doubt that these are the twenty monks that the Nine Shadows Sect will send to the Xuanyin Land to participate in the Great Competition.
Xu Jin was in the middle of these monks, an inconspicuous position.
Comparatively speaking, his cultivation is neither high nor low, and he is of a medium level.
The ninth-order disciple with the highest cultivation level was none other than the fifth senior brother He Jingxiong, who had a relationship with Xu Jin. In fact, he was also the highest-ranking disciple in the Soul Condensation Stage Present. The four great disciples in front of him were all nowhere to be seen. It is said that they are all in retreat to hit the bottleneck. Senior brother Tan Qingyun has reached the most critical juncture of the soul training period. The rest of the senior brothers, some of them are also impacting the bottleneck of the soul training period, and some are impacting the bottleneck of the ninth order of the soul condensation period, wanting to reach the highest peak of the soul condensation period.
Seven years ago, when Xu Jin met He Jingxiong, He Jingxiong was in the realm of the eighth order of the Soul Condensation Stage. The further he cultivated, the longer the time and energy spent, and in seven years, He Jingxiong became a ninth-order disciple, which could be regarded as relatively smooth. Some cultivators with poor qualifications may not be able to cultivate to the sixth order of the Soul Condensation Stage for the rest of their lives.
In addition to He Jingxiong, there were also two disciples of the eighth order of the Soul Condensation Stage.
Among them is Xu Jin's senior brother Xiao Wanqing.
When Xiao Wanqing and Xu Jin made a move, it was the fifth order of the soul condensation period, and in seven years, they actually advanced to the third order in a row, I don't know what kind of opportunity they encountered. It is said that the Nine Shadows Sect spent a lot of effort to use the elixir to infuse Xiao Wanqing's body, and forcibly brought him to this realm.
Undoubtedly, these three people are the core disciples of the Nine Shadows Sect this time, and they have high hopes.
Xu Jin was a little strange.
He Jingxiong and Xiao Wanqing are both Yang Tianhong's personal disciples, and among the three core disciples, Yang Tianhong's apprentices actually account for two. The Nine Shadows Sect made such an arrangement, didn't Yang Tianhong have the slightest objection?
The land of Xuanyin is very dangerous, and the chance of survival is too small.
But after thinking about it carefully, Xu Jin suddenly felt again.
Yang Tianhong is the deepest cultivator among the deacons of the Nine Shadows Sect, ranking first, and he may step into the realm of the Gathering Stage at any time, and he is cultivating the strongest attack power of the metal surname exercise, his disciple is naturally also strong in combat, and he has a better chance of winning than his brothers at the same level.
Taking a step back, Yang Tianhong has made significant contributions to the sect, and the sect cannot treat him badly, and must help him to break through the bottleneck as soon as possible and become one of the elders in the gathering stage.
Xu Jin was in everyone's eyes at this time, and he was a seventh-order disciple of the Soul Condensation Period. Disciples like this are the main force of the entire Dabi team. There are about a dozen of them. The other seventh-order disciples all entered before Xu Jin, and some even joined the Nine Shadows Sect for twenty-seven or eight years. I didn't participate in the last big competition, so it came in handy in this big competition.
Although it is cannon fodder, its strength cannot be too weak. Otherwise, relying only on a few core disciples, I am afraid that the heroes will not be able to stand up to the crowd. If the registered disciples die too quickly and too quickly, the other sects will be able to concentrate their manpower and attack the core disciples of their Nine Shadows Sect, and maybe it will be the end of the entire army.
As for the disciples who cultivated below the seventh order in the Soul Condensation Period, they were basically sent to death.
One of them had the lowest cultivation, and it was only the fourth order of the Soul Condensation Period, and it was Zhou Yi, who was the same as Xu Jin and worshiped the Nine Shadows Sect.
This woman's qualifications are ordinary, and no matter how hard she tries, her cultivation and improvement are very limited. If it weren't for that, the sect might have left her behind and cultivated for another twenty years, preparing for the next Dabi.
Among the Dabi monks, Xu Jin was surprised not to see Qiu Niang.
Xu Jin saw Qiu Niang last year, and she had already cultivated to the fifth order, so she could be regarded as entering the realm relatively quickly. Perhaps it was for this reason that she was not selected to participate in the competition. In another twenty years, maybe she can also step into the seventh-order realm, and then she can fight.
Zhou Yi's expression didn't look very lonely, but very calm. It seems that he has accepted his fate, and the left and right are just a death.
Xu Jin's face was naturally very calm.
Judging from his cultivation at the moment, the eighth-order peak of the Nine Shadows Technique plus the seventh-order peak of the Soul Breaking Slash, the three core disciples of the Nine Shadows Sect, Xiao Wanqing and another eighth-order cultivator, are not expected to be his opponents. Only that ninth-order disciple, He Jingxiong, didn't know the depths. If the disciples of the other five sects were roughly the same as those of the Nine Shadows Sect, then what he really needed to care about was only six or seven monks.
Comparatively speaking, Xu Jin felt that the chances of survival were not too small.
On the steps in front of the main hall, a white-haired monk stood.
This person, Xu Jin, had also seen it once, and it was Elder Meng, the hall master of the outer hall.
Xu Jin already knew by now that anyone in the Nine Shadows Sect who had the title of an elder must be a monk in the Gathering Period.
Elder Meng was the leader of their competition. The Outer Hall was already in charge of these matters. Elder Meng stood on the steps and carefully explained to everyone the rules of the Xuanyin Land Great Competition.
According to Elder Meng, the Xuanyin Land was originally a forbidden place, and the Yin Qi was far stronger than the ordinary place. Even if you are a monk who has achieved cultivation, you need to be careful when you go there, and use your skills to resist the strong cold qi. The entire Xuanyin Land was jointly set up by the six major sects to set a strong prohibition, and there was only one entrance for entering and exiting.
The time limit of the Great Ratio of the Xuanyin Land is one month.
During this month, the entrance is closed, and all monks who participate in the Tabi are not allowed to exit. Only after the expiration of the month will the entrance reopen. And the opening time is only half an hour. If the monks of the Xuanyin Land could not leave within this half an hour, they would have to stay forever.
Twenty years later, the entrance will be opened again.
There are no cultivators in the Soul Condensation Period, they can stay in the Xuanyin Land for twenty years, and they will definitely not be able to endure the cold aura of the Xuanyin Land, and within a few years, their souls will be scattered.
The entrance was also very peculiar, and when three monks came out of the entrance, it closed itself. Even if someone is lucky enough not to die, they can't get out.
The reason for this setting is naturally to prevent some monks from stealing and playing tricks, especially those monks who are good at concealment, after entering the Xuanyin Land, find a place to hide, and wait for the expiration of a month before sneaking out of the entrance. It is estimated that the strongest monks must be there before the entrance opens, and the weaker monks will have to break through from them if they want to be opportunistic.
There are only three people who can survive, and one more than one means that their chances are less than three percent.
Imagine a monk who would easily let others go?
Even though there were only three chances of surviving among the one hundred and twenty monks, Elder Meng still instructed the disciples of the Nine Shadows Sect to work together to fight against the disciples of the other sects. And for good reason. The more casualties the disciples of other sects, the more chances the disciples of the Nine Shadows Sect would survive.
In a certain big competition many years ago, there was such a precedent that the three disciples who walked out of the land of Xuanyin alive were from the same sect. As for the same sect, there are even more examples of two disciples surviving.
In addition, Elder Meng also instructed that in that Xuanyin land, there are many Yin beasts, whose surnames are ferocious and murderous, and most of them are not weak in cultivation, so they need to be careful. After entering, it is best to be able to travel in the company of fellow disciples. Otherwise, it is very likely that he will die in the mouth of the Yin Beast before he has fought with other monks.
At this moment, the voice of the old man Tianchuan sounded in Xu Jin's mind: "Boy, don't listen to him fart." This little doll is full of nonsense......"
A smile appeared on the corner of Xu Jin's mouth.
Elder Meng's beard was white, but the old man Tianchuan called her "little doll". This 10,000-year-old ghost is really relying on the old and selling the old.
"I'm telling you, boy, you went to that place of the shadows, don't be busy killing people. Usually, the more extreme yin the place, the more there are all kinds of elixirs, and their medicinal surnames are far from being comparable to ordinary elixirs. You take advantage of this opportunity to collect more elixir. You kid is really too poor, so poor that you are terribly poor! Simply relying on the little pill given to you by the Nine Shadows Sect, I don't know that it will take the Year of the Monkey to achieve a little success! On the road of cultivating the truth, it is important to practice diligently and hard, but without the assistance of the elixir, you will never be able to cross some passes. ”
Xu Jin smiled bitterly: "Senior, junior doesn't know anything about elixir. ”
The old man Tianchuan was furious: "Why are you so stupid, don't you have my old man?"
Xu Jin said: "Although the predecessors are extremely knowledgeable, how can you see the outside world when you are in the Yin Luo Blade?"
This is also outrageous.
The old man Tianchuan was even more angry, and scolded: "Stupid, what a stupid talent! I'm here, if I can still see things from the outside world, then won't I become a heavenly demon? Even if it's the Heavenly Demon Nether, trapped in it, I'm afraid it's useless...... Let me tell you, all the elixirs must have visions and unique breaths, and if they are high-grade elixirs, there will be spirit beasts next to them to protect them. When you are there, you will be able to imprint the appearance of this herb in your own sea of knowledge, and after I communicate with you, I will be able to get a rough estimate. ”
"Yes, Senpai. ”
Xu Jin was submissive in his mouth, but he actually smiled in his heart.
This 10,000-year-old ghost has fallen for himself again.
Although Xu Jin has never taken elixir, he has also read some classics, so he has some impression of elixir.
After Elder Meng's instructions were completed, he asked his disciples to give each of them a small storage ring. Inside this ring, there are three "Burning Sun Pills" to resist the extremely cold yin qi of the Xuanyin Land. There are also some other elixirs and talismans that are used for self-protection and against the enemy. All the disciples who participated in the big competition were given one copy and were impartial.
But Xu Jin also understood that the things hidden in the storage rings of the three core disciples were definitely not exactly the same as them. Can the sect not have any special favor for them?
