Chapter 26: Huoyun Zhenren
In Dongyun City, near the center, there is a very wide platform, about sixty zhang in circumference.
Whenever there is a big event in Dongyun City, or there are extremely important people coming here, this place is often used to hold ceremonies, because the terrain is open, and there is no wall to cover it, so there are thousands of people watching each ceremony, making the atmosphere extremely lively.
And today it is especially enthusiastic, because the three-hundred-year-old Xuanyang Gate Entrance Contest will be held here, between the three major families of Dongyun City.
Since five days ago, after the three families released the news, the entire Dongyun City has been boiling, and the whole city is discussing the big competition of the three clans, who is strong and who is weak, who can finally enter the immortal gate, and some people claim that there will be real immortals this time, which makes the matter of the big competition even more confusing.
For a while, the whole city was waiting for the early arrival of the three clans as if they were looking forward to a major festival.
The genius is slightly bright, and the vicinity of the platform is already crowded, which can be described as full of people, and the platform is located on the north side, which is jointly funded by the three to build a viewing platform.
Legend has it that Xuanyangmen is going to send immortals to Dongyun City as envoys to preside over this three-clan competition, and the highest main seat in the middle of the viewing platform is prepared for the immortals of Xuanyangmen.
Because of this, many prominent figures in Dongyun City are competing for the rest of the seats, hoping to get closer to the immortals and get a little immortal.
Just after the hour, the Feng family, the Li family, the Han family, and the three heads of the family appeared on the platform with the important figures of each family.
In a few moments, the wind and clouds in the sky moved, and a large number of clouds seemed to be rubbed and folded by an invisible hand, and a cloud ladder was born out of thin air, slowly extending from the sky, and paving down towards the East Cloud City.
A middle-aged man in a blue robe and black hair slowly descended down the ladder from above the clouds, the wind blowing his hair up, and a soft light emanating from his body, giving people a sense of cinderella.
Those with sharp eyes even found that the middle-aged man was stepping on a sword under his feet, and some people in the crowd suddenly shouted frequently, "Immortals, really immortals." ”
Immediately, a large number of people immediately knelt on the ground and shouted for the blessing of the gods.
The middle-aged man's face was flat, and his gestures were flowing and flowing, giving people a sense of naturalness, and the sword gently landed on the main seat of the viewing platform, his eyes were as sharp as a blade, looking down at the people under the viewing platform.
An invisible coercion quickly spread from the middle-aged man as the center to the surroundings, and nearly 10,000 people were suddenly silent, and everyone felt that their hearts seemed to be pressed by a stone, and it was a little difficult to breathe.
"The old man Qi Yunbai, the Taoist name Huoyun Zhenren, coincides with the triennial disciple election of my Xuanyang Gate, and under the order of Xuanyang Zi, the head of Xuanyang Gate, he came to Dongyun City, and the six strongest people in this competition will return to the mountain with the old man and become disciples of Xuanyang Gate, and from then on he will break away from the world and embark on the way of supreme cultivation of immortals. ”
Qi Yunbai's faint voice was not high-pitched, but it seemed like a breeze opening the way, clearly echoing in every corner of Dongyun City.
Many people who originally didn't believe in immortals and gods, but just came to see the excitement, couldn't help but don't believe it themselves at this moment, and joined the army of kneeling and worshipping one after another, and the eyes of many people were full of deep awe and fanatical worship.
Under the coercion, the teenagers of the Feng, Li and Han families who participated in the big competition were obviously much stronger than those people who had no martial arts foundation, and all the teenagers stood in place, and none of them bowed their heads.
The heads of the three families of Feng, Li and Han took a step forward, bowed to the middle-aged man, and said together: "I'll wait to see Shangxian, these people are the candidates for the big competition, how to compete, please decide Shangxian." ”
When the middle-aged man heard this, his eyes flashed, and he moved with his heart, and the coercion that spread out slowly retracted, and just when all the teenagers felt a little relaxed, a coercion that was hundreds of times stronger than just now came, and this coercion was only aimed at these thirty teenagers, and had nothing to do with others.
This coercion is so strong that it is as if there are thousands of pounds of boulders pressed on the shoulders, which makes people want to bow their heads and bend down, or even bend their knees to lie down to be comfortable.
Slowly, the pressure became stronger and stronger, and some people only felt that the bones in their whole bodies were creaking, as if they were about to break, and they struggled to support it for a while, and finally one person couldn't resist it and fell on the platform.
Seeing that one of them had fallen, some people had a sense of relief in their eyes, and the persistence in their hearts gradually dissipated.
Soon, the second and third fell one after another, and time passed slowly, and more and more people fell.
In less than 100 breaths, the power of this coercion has reached nearly 3,000 catties.
Many people began to tremble, their faces were almost bloodless, and after a while, their eyes rolled and they fainted.
The three heads of the Feng Li and Han families stood aside, and their faces changed slightly, but they didn't expect that this competition had started like this, and before they had time to say a few words, the plans they had prepared before were all useless at the moment.
As another teenager fell, everyone who could still stand only felt a lightness on their shoulders, and the feeling of being pressed by a thousand catties of boulders disappeared in an instant, and they all shook their numb limbs and moved their qi and blood.
On the platform, nearly half of the people were lying on the ground, and some were completely unconscious, and the three heads of the families hurriedly ordered someone to help their children aside.
Han Qiming counted the number of people, his heart sank, half of the Han family children fell, only the three people from Hanjia Village and Han Tao Han Lin were still standing, Han Tao's face was quite normal, but his eyes looked a little gloomy, but Han Lin was not lightly injured, and now he can only stand.
If it is still such an intensity test in the future, or if it is a competition with the opponent, Han Lin will definitely not be able to support it, there are still four people in the Feng family standing, and the strength of the Li family seems to be the strongest, and seven out of ten people have come over.
"People who can't stand are not qualified to cultivate immortals. Qi Yunbai's voice was light.
"The rest, there are sixteen people, next, it depends on your own ability, two by two, the loser is eliminated, in the duel, regardless of life and death, as long as the opponent has not opened his mouth to admit defeat, even if you kill the opponent, it doesn't matter, since you dare to compete for the qualification to enter the immortal gate, then you must dare to face the test of life and death. ”
The heads of the three families of Feng, Li and Han respectively reported the names of their disciples, and Qi Yunbai groaned slightly, and lined up the list of opponents one by one in line with the principle of not touching each other as much as possible with the same surname.
After handing over the list to Li Kun, Qi Yunbai's eyes closed slightly, closing his eyes to recuperate, he was not interested in this level of competition.
Li Kun smiled, this big competition, under the careful preparation he began many years ago, the strength of the Li family's children was obviously higher than that of the Feng and Han families.
It seems that a few decades later, after the death of Han Qiming and the other older generation, the Li family can completely overwhelm the Han family and become the absolute first family in Dongyun City.
Thinking of this, his voice couldn't help but be a little louder, and he said loudly: "The list of opponents is determined by Shangxian, I believe everyone has no objections, in the first game, Li Li Li will play against Han Lin of the Han family." ”
After that, he made eye contact with Feng Ye Nan, and the two sides smiled slightly, and each returned to the place where the family team was located.
Seeing the two of them look like this, Han Qiming's heart sank, and a strong smell of conspiracy permeated Han Qiming's heart, and he couldn't help but fall into deep thought, thinking about how to deal with the next game.
Time passes imperceptibly.
On the platform, Han Lin's face was pale, his arms were sore, his feet were heavy like lead, his reaction was quite fast, but there was a sense of powerlessness all over his body, but the opponent was ruthless, and his moves were not far from the point.
If it was normal, he might still have the strength to fight back, but he had suffered a lot of injuries in that coercion before, and now he can be described as the end of a strong crossbow.
Seeing that the opponent's sword came straight to his chest, but he was powerless to resist, Han Lin hung his hands and stood in place with his eyes closed, he would rather die than admit defeat.
Li Li was slightly stunned when he saw this, and after a little hesitation, his eyes immediately burst into flames, and the sword shadow was even faster, heading straight for Han Lin's heart, if this sword was completely hit, he would definitely be able to pierce Han Lin's heart with a sword and kill him on the spot.
Li Li's strength among the juniors of the Li family is roughly ranked around four or five, and the top three are occupied by the three kings of the Li family, and others cannot shake the status of the three kings at all.
Li Li also challenged the Three Days King many times, although he also had a certain chance, but he just didn't win.
This time he got the opportunity to participate in the three clans competition, in addition to the Three Days King, Li Li was the child of the Li family who was most valued by the head of the family, Li Kun, and gave him a secret treasure, hoping that he could obtain a qualification to enter the immortal gate.
