Chapter 278: Competition One
The next day, when Ling Yi woke up from his sleep, the streets of Zhongzhou City had become extremely turbulent.
Ling Yi, who didn't know what was going on, walked out of the inn after filling in his stomach. There were many people on the street, whispering to each other or muttering in a low voice. Someone was there.
Looking through the noisy crowd, Ling Yi saw a group of guards wearing fiery red costumes, rushing towards them with evil expressions. Each guard had a red flame pattern embroidered on their chest.
"Red Flame Valley?" Ling Yi arrived here for the first time, but he still did some homework first. He clearly remembered the signs of the big forces and sects in Zhongzhou City, so he could tell at a glance that these people were from the Red Flame Valley.
"Have you heard? It seems like something happened in Red Flame Valley last night?" one of the three people standing nearby to watch the excitement said.
"Crimson Flame Valley? Isn't it the Crimson Flame Valley five miles away from Zhongzhou City? What else could happen to such a large sect?" Someone shook his head and said
"Hey! There was a big battle in the Scarlet Flame Valley last night. It is said that the owners of the Scarlet Flame Valley are missing!"
"No? Scarlet Flame Valley is considered to be one of the top five forces in Zhongzhou City. Someone still dares to cause trouble in their headquarters?"
"Red Flame Valley is in the top five, but that's just the top five. Aren't there a few people who are stronger than him?"
"You mean..."
"I didn't say that!"
These three people said something to each other. Although what they said was a bit confusing, Ling Yi guessed the general idea.
Last night, something big must have happened in Scarlet Flame Valley!
The owner of Scarlet Flame Valley is Gu Fentian. It is said that he is already at the ninth level of Moon Soul and is about to break through to Yang Soul. However, he mysteriously disappeared last night. That is a bit intriguing.
"Get out of the way!" waved and shouted at the guards from the Red Flame Valley who were running here. Although they were a little rude and rude, in the eyes of others, they were already restrained enough.
The disappearance of the owner of Crimson Flame Valley is a huge loss to the people of Crimson Flame Valley. Without Gu Fentian, they are not as tough as before. Otherwise, normally, they would have been whipped over by a whip.
Ling Yi did not stay here for long, but turned around and walked to the west, exactly in the same direction as these Scarlet Flame Valley guards, because there, at noon today, was the most critical battle between Scarlet Flame Valley and the Qianling Sect.
In terms of the level of alchemy, even the ten Scarlet Flame Valleys probably cannot produce a pharmacist who can compete with the Qianling Sect. The intervention of external forces has caused subtle changes in the situation. The Qianling Sect unexpectedly
After losing two battles, losing another one, the rest is a trivial matter, the Qianling Sect's reputation has completely collapsed.
Moreover, in this competition, Ling Yi felt a hint of conspiracy. Using one's own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses was not something a large sect would do. Even if external forces intervened, Scarlet Flame Valley would not be able to do so easily.
Standing on the opposite side of the Qianling Sect, that is the Qianling Sect, and its appeal is not comparable to that of the Red Flame Valley. If it is really urgent, even the Red Flame Valley may not be able to eat it.
After walking in a hurry, Ling Yi finally arrived at the venue of the competition, outside the headquarters of the Qianling Sect, on the Moon Watching Platform!
The Moon Watching Platform that stands outside the headquarters of the Qianling Sect is a crescent-shaped high platform carved from stone. It is magnificent. This reflects the status of the Qianling Sect in Zhongzhou City. This kind of platform can represent a
The buildings of the sect are not comparable to those of other small forces.
Although it was still morning, the stands on both sides of the viewing platform were already full of people. Some spectators who could not find seats could only stand aside helplessly, and the aisles of the stands were actually packed.
With a helpless smile, Ling Yi also saw the attraction and importance of this competition. He found a hidden place. When he saw no one around, he jumped lightly, stepped on the void, and then jumped onto a tree. On a leafy tree
"Master, I also want to come out and watch the fun!" Xiaoxue begged in the black iron ring.
"Okay, but don't make any noise. This is Zhongzhou and there are many experts. Don't get into trouble easily." Ling Yi smiled and agreed to the slightly naughty Xiaoxue's request.
"Yeah!" Xiaoxue got out of the ring, stood on the tree, and looked around.
Ling Yi also smiled and cast his gaze downwards
There is a crowd of people in the stands, and the crescent-shaped high platform is only equipped with two long tables. It is still empty. Presumably no one from Qianling Sect and Scarlet Flame Valley has arrived yet.
Standing quietly on the big tree, Ling Yi, like the spectators in the stands, were waiting for the two parties to enter. The only difference was that Ling Yi was a little excited.
This time, he can finally see the top alchemy battle, which will also be of great benefit to him in improving his alchemy skills.
…
Qianling Sect, in the lobby, Zhao Kunzheng, the leader of the sect, is sitting at the top of the table with a solemn expression. Under him, there are also some pharmacists with extraordinary attainments in alchemy in the Qianling Sect sitting on both sides. Most of these people are Qianling Sect. The old man in the Ling Sect holds great power in the sect, and his words are also very weighty.
"Everyone, who do you think should be sent to fight today?" Zhao Kun, who was sitting in the first seat, clenched his fists and asked in a deep voice.
No one answered in the lobby. All the elders sat in their seats uneasily, lowering their heads and saying nothing. Most of the young disciples standing in the lobby lowered their heads after thinking for a while.
"Dad! Let Ling'er fight! Among the remaining young disciples, only Ling'er is the most suitable!" Zhao Qingling, who was standing behind Zhao Kun, came out, faced Zhao Kun, and said anxiously
At this time, Zhao Qingling is no longer as beautiful as she was in Cangyin College. She looks haggard and tired, which makes people feel pity for her. She is dressed in plain clothes and outlines her beautiful figure, but her delicate body is trembling slightly. Obviously, she was a little excited, but it was not the excitement caused by joy, but a kind of suppressed anger.
Everyone present understood why Scarlet Flame Valley wanted to compete with the Qianling Sect to practice medicine. It was not for anything else but for the Qianling Sect’s treasure, the Forbidden Tower!
And Zhao Qingling understood deeply that every time she saw Zhao Kun's extreme unwillingness, she felt heartache. Now, Scarlet Flame Valley has won twice in a row, but she, her daughter, can't do anything, so She must stand up today!
Looking at his daughter with a determined look in front of him, Zhao Kun sighed bitterly, waved his hand and said: "Ling'er, you have to know that the other party is the pharmacist sent by Moyun Palace. Scarlet Flame Valley will definitely defeat us this time. , your age does meet the competition regulations, but after all, your alchemy skills are not very sophisticated, so you are not their opponent!"
"Are we going to watch them take away the Tower of Forbidden Land?" Zhao Qingling clenched her silver teeth in anger.
"Hey! I should have been hot-headed at that time and agreed to them without thinking about anything. It seems that God is going to destroy our Qianling Sect, how can we stop it with human power?" Zhao Kun looked up to the sky and sighed. If today's battle fails, the Tower of Forbidden Land will be destroyed. It belongs to the Scarlet Flame Valley. Without the Tower of Forbidden Land, their Qianling Sect would be the same as the sect being destroyed!
Zhao Qingling looked sad. All disciples of the Qianling Sect knew the importance of the Forbidden Tower. The tower was filled with strong spiritual power, and the disciples of the Qianling Sect also practiced in the tower day and night, constantly increasing their spiritual power. After working hard day and night on alchemy, the Qianling Sect has achieved the great prestige it has today!
However, if the Tower of the Forbidden Land loses to the Scarlet Flame Valley, the Qianling Sect may be able to maintain its reputation as the best in the world in alchemy for a while, but as time goes by, the Qianling Sect will inevitably gradually decline and will eventually be destroyed!
Almost everyone present had thought of this ending, their faces were gloomy, and a feeling of sadness quietly spread in the lobby.
"There are many demon talents on the mainland, and there must be many talents who are better than our Qianling sect in refining medicine. If we can get strong external assistance, we may be able to resolve this crisis. In just a short period of time, Where can I find it?" Zhao Kun shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Demon talent?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Qingling suddenly called out a person who always brings unexpected surprises to people, "Dad, I thought of a person who might be able to help us..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhao Kun interrupted Zhao Qingling: "Who is it? Invite him quickly!"
"Ling'er asked him for a request. I'm sure he won't refuse. However, he is still in the Cangyin Empire. He won't be able to get here without spending a month!" Zhao Qingling sighed.
"Hey!" The expectation on Zhao Kun's face turned into disappointment, and then his face condensed and his voice was powerful: "Forget it, this may be God's will. Even if my Qianling Sect fails, it will still be better than showing its true ability! Ling'er, this time, my father will let you go up to the challenge! We can't lose the prestige of our Qianling Sect!"
"Yes!" Zhao Qingling nodded solemnly in agreement.
…
The viewing platform is still noisy. More and more people are pouring into the viewing platform, but it is obvious that most people are pushed further and further away by the crowd.
At this time, Ling Yi had changed from a standing posture to sitting on a big tree. He looked at the chaotic scene under the tree boringly and almost dozed off. Xiaoxue beside him was very energetic, looking left and right curiously. Look, I can’t stop being happy
"call out!"
Suddenly, there was a sharp sound in the sky, which instantly woke Ling Yi up.
Looking up, I saw ten people lined up in a line, landing on the moon platform from a high altitude. The person in the lead had snow-white skin and a feminine appearance. He had an arrogant look on his face and a hint of something at the corner of his mouth. Ruowu smiled, folded his arms, walked directly to the edge of the viewing platform, looked at the people in the stands, and sneered: "Where are the people from the Qianling Sect? Could it be that they are scared and hiding? They are the best in the world in refining medicine. No matter how I look at the name, it seems a bit undeserved!"
"Master Yin Tian!" A clear shout full of anger suddenly sounded from a distance, and a slender and pretty figure floated gently from the entrance of the Moon Watching Platform, jumped directly onto the Moon Watching Platform, and looked at Master Yin Tian coldly. See
Behind her, Zhao Kun, the leader of the Qianling Sect, led the masters of the sect to the viewing platform.
Zhao Qingling!
Ling Yi's eyes instantly focused on Zhao Qingling. After not seeing him for a long time, Zhao Qingling's face had become much thinner, but he still exuded a shrewd and capable aura. His delicate face was already beautiful, coupled with that unexpected charm,
On the contrary, it is even more attractive. At a glance, you can see that nine out of ten people in the stands have focused their attention on Zhao Qingling, and this does not include the remaining ten or two women!
"She looks pretty good, isn't she a vase?" Master Yintian said with a strange smile. Looking at the woman in front of him, he also felt amazed.
"Vase, you will know next whether I am a vase or not!" Zhao Qingling sneered as cold as ice, walked to the long table, and gently touched the high-end medicine refining furnace on the long table with her jade hand, and a faint flame was
rising into flames
"Next, I will be your opponent!" Zhao Qingling raised her pretty eyes slightly and said coldly but firmly.
"Okay, okay!" Master Yintian clapped his hands happily, twitching his lips. The nine people behind him stepped back, and he walked towards the long table. Suddenly his pupils shrank, and his figure drifted away, and a black thread appeared.
It just hit the place where he was standing just now, and there was a loud bang, and a huge hole appeared on the ground.
Master Yin Tian was dripping with cold sweat, and his anger was rising rapidly in his heart, "You bastard! Who is it!"
A pair of eyes full of anger swept around the stands. Zhao Qingling and everyone from Qianling Sect on the side looked at me and I looked at you in shock. They all didn't know why. Master Yin Tian quickly looked away. He knew that this was not the case.
The Qianling sect's hand means that someone is hiding in the dark waiting for an opportunity to do something to him!
"Huh!" A black shadow flew past quickly. Master Yin Tian's eyes quickly focused on the black shadow. When he saw the black shadow burrowing into a big tree with lush leaves, he shouted: "Get out of here!"
come out!"
