Chapter 209: Every step of the way, the lotus grows
Finally, on the ninth day of July, this grand day, the Xiaoyao Valley Observatory was filled with people. It was more lively than ever before. Elite masters from almost all sects gathered here. The occasion was unprecedented. People from all over the world gathered together for no other reason than for Li Qianmo.
.
On the main peak in the middle of the watch tower stands a huge statue of Taoist Yinlong. Under the statue, a huge semi-arc shaped stand was erected for the elders of various sects to watch the fighting competition.
The disciples from each faction below stood in clusters, chattering and discussing who would win the championship in this competition.
"Dong dong dong..."
A sudden drumbeat sounded, and all the noisy disciples from all factions fell silent. They knew that the competition was about to begin.
"哐..."
With the sound of the gong, Sun Boqing flew up and landed on the stage. All the disciples in the audience cheered: "Alchemy Sage, the senior Alchemy Sage!"
"Quiet." Sun Boqing tapped his wooden stick lightly and shouted lightly, and everyone in the audience immediately fell silent.
Sun Boqing turned around and faced the north, cleared his throat and said slowly: "This monastic fighting competition brings together the elites of the good and evil sects. It is the first time in history that I have come after being recommended by the elders of each sect.
As the referee, before the game starts, I will tell everyone the rules of this competition."
"First, participating disciples are not allowed to take pills or use formations. Anyone who violates this will be considered a failure."
"Second, participating disciples cannot exceed two hundred years of monastic age. Anyone who violates this rule will be disqualified."
…
Sun Boqing explained dozens of rules in one breath, and then said: "Okay, I hope you will remember the above rules and never violate them. Now, the competition begins. Shushan disciples will fight against Yi Jianmen disciples. Please invite participating disciples from both factions to the stage.
!”
As soon as Sun Boqing finished speaking, a black shadow flashed across the sky, and a young man in black suddenly landed on the ring. He had a high forehead, a nose job, straight eyebrows and straight eyes, with a heroic appearance.
"Ah, it's our senior brother Chen Songyang of Yijian Sect, a master of Hedao who is a great master. He is a hero of the younger generation. I have never seen him in Yijian Sect, but I didn't expect that I would be lucky enough to see him today, haha,
Senior Brother Chen will definitely win!"
As soon as Chen Songyang appeared on the stage, the disciples of the Yijian Sect below immediately became excited and cheered.
"Humph!" A cold snort suddenly came from the audience. He could still hear it very clearly amidst the noise of the crowd, which showed that his cultivation level was astonishing.
"Woo..." A gust of wind suddenly blew up, causing the disciples below to stagger around and scream strangely. A giant shadow passed across the sky, stretching out a pair of huge black wings, shaped like a big bird.
"It's Dan Chenzi!" someone exclaimed, and the crowd suddenly became excited again.
"Bang!"
Dan Chenzi suddenly landed on the ring, making a loud noise, and the entire platform trembled slightly. There were ripples on the ground where his feet landed. If the ring barrier hadn't protected the ring, he would have crushed the ring.
"Wow! Dan Chenzi is so powerful! Wow! He has actually reached the second level of Hedao cultivation!" Everyone in the audience shouted in shock.
Dan Chenzi looked at Chen Songyang with a stern face. Chen Songyang was so frightened by his amazing momentum that he took a step back. The audience suddenly booed and cheered for Dan Chenzi.
"With the combination of yin and yang, I am invincible!" A disciple who had participated in the East China Sea Demon Slayer suddenly shouted. Other disciples followed suit and shouted in unison, "With the combination of yin and yang, I am invincible! With the combination of yin and yang, I am invincible!
…”
Chen Songyang looked very unhappy, frowned slightly, raised his fists to Dan Chenzi and saluted, "Dan Chenzi, I won't be polite."
Dan Chenzi clasped his fists in return and said coldly: "As long as I am here, no one can take away my brother!"
Sun Boqing on the side retreated to the corner of the ring and said calmly: "You two, the competition begins."
"boom!"
As soon as Sun Boqing finished speaking, Dan Chenzi's whole body suddenly erupted with a shocking force. A powerful hurricane suddenly set off, shaking away the dust all over the place. Chen Songyang was so shaken by this force that he took three steps back and hurriedly circulated his inner energy to resist.
Dan Chenzi moved suddenly, leaving behind a phantom all the way, attacking Chen Songyang like traveling through the void.
Chen Songyang was shocked, his eyes suddenly shrank, and with a flick of his right hand, a green sword appeared in his hand at some point, and the green sword energy flew out across the air and headed straight for Dan Chenzi.
"Bah!"
Dan Chenzi shouted suddenly, and his left wing suddenly stretched out, like a huge sharp blade, sweeping out. The entire arena was ravaged by crazy energy, like a storm.
There was a muffled sound of "poof", and the powerful sword energy collided with Dan Chenzi's iron wings. They immediately collapsed and dissipated into nothingness. The iron wings were unstoppable. After dispersing the sword energy, they still continued to attack Chen Songyang.
"What!" Chen Songyang screamed in surprise, holding the sword with his hand, and a void ripple appeared on the tip of the sword, shining brightly, and turned out to be a strange rune.
"It's the Taitian Formation, our Yi Jian Sect's ultimate defensive magical power!" The disciples of the Yi Jian Sect cheered when they saw this move.
"Bang!"
"Danglanglanglang..."
There was a muffled sound followed by a rapid metallic sound, and silver light shot out and filled the sky. The magic sword in Chen Songyang's hand broke into more than a dozen pieces in an instant, and the fragments fell all over the ground.
Dan Chenzi and Chen Songyang both stood motionless. Dan Chenzi's iron wings were only an inch away from Chen Songyang's neck. Each feather was like a black sharp blade, shining brightly in the sun. A layer of cold sweat broke out on Chen Songyang's back.
The audience below were all stunned. Unexpectedly, Dan Chenzi defeated Chen Songyang with one move.
Dan Chenzi took back his iron wings and said coldly: "You lose."
"How is that possible!" The elder of Yi Jianmen in the stands stood up, stared at the table, and exclaimed, "Songyang can't even take one of Dan Chenzi's moves?"
Tianmen Taoist from Tianjian Sect also frowned and said with a worried look on his face: "It seems that we have all fallen into the trap of Master Daoxu. With Dan Chenzi here, who is his opponent? Shushan will definitely win."
The elder of the Kunlun Sect also twitched his beard and nodded: "Brother Tianmen is right, we have all been tricked by Master Daoxu. He is trying to save that kid Li Qianmo in disguise, making our work in vain."
"Hey, it's ridiculous. It's ridiculous." Not far away, the elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, Zuo Sansi, suddenly sneered.
Elder Kunlun frowned when he heard this, turned around and shouted: "What's so funny!"
"Of course it's ridiculous." Zuo Sansi stroked his beard freely and sneered, "If you don't have the ability, don't agree in the first place. Now it's time to blame others. Do you think it's ridiculous or not?"
His words were full of sarcasm, and Elder Kunlun's eyebrows jumped in anger when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "You are quite serious. How did I know that Dan Chenzi suddenly broke through to the second level of Hedao?
When I was at the first level of Hedao, I could compete with giant masters. Now that I have reached the second level of Hedao, there is that disciple who is his opponent. Judging from your arrogance, it seems as if someone in your Ten Thousand Demons Sect can beat him."
"Hey, hey hey, hey hey..." After hearing his words, Zuo Sansi just sneered without saying anything, making Elder Kunlun's face turn green with anger.
Sun Boqing walked to the middle of the ring and announced loudly: "In this competition, Shushan Danchenzi wins, you two please leave."
Dan Chenzi and Chen Songyang exited the ring respectively. Bai Mu was waiting for Dan Chenzi under the ring. As soon as he saw him coming down, he immediately cheered and shouted, happily saying: "Haha, Dan Chenzi, good job, you really give me face, just one wing.
After defeating that little bastard, I feel relieved now that we can definitely save Mr. Li."
Dan Chenzi smiled and nodded: "Of course, no one can harm my brother. I will save him even if I risk my life."
The two of them were chatting, and Sun Boqing said loudly on the stage: "The second competition will be between Taitian Sect and Penglai Island. Disciples from both factions are invited to enter."
As soon as he finished speaking, a green figure suddenly flew up, passed over everyone's heads, and landed on the ring.
I saw this person with a delicate face, fluttering green shirt, hands on his back, a happy expression, and a high level of cultivation, reaching the ninth minor realm of the first level of Hedao.
"Senior Brother Ding Mian must win, Senior Brother Ding Mian must win..." The Taitian Sect disciples in the audience cheered excitedly, and the slogans were uniform, as if they had been rehearsed.
Everyone waited for a long time, but still no disciples from Penglai Island came in. They were all surprised, and many people began to speculate.
"Penglai Island disciples, please come in." Sun Boqing shouted again, but there was still no one on stage.
Sun Boqing couldn't help but turn around and look towards the stands, and saw Su Qingduan, the elder of Penglai Island, sitting there. He couldn't help but raise his voice and asked: "Elder Su, why don't the disciples of your sect come in?"
Su Qing stood up and said: "Don't worry, Lord Alchemy. When I came here yesterday, I found that our participating disciple from Penglai Island was breaking through to the realm, and at the critical moment, it has already been a day. She should also have succeeded in breaking through. She is probably rushing
On the way here, please do the following competition first."
Sun Boqing nodded when he heard this: "Okay." After saying that, he turned to Ding Mian, preparing to persuade him to leave.
"No need, I'm here." A cold voice suddenly came, and everyone turned their heads to follow the sound, only to see a white figure floating over, with long hair flying, and a pure face like a fairy descending from the earth.
"Wow, it's Fairy Chu." All the disciples exclaimed, being so fascinated by his peerless appearance that they opened their mouths wide and drooled all over the place.
When approaching the ring, Chu Xingyao slowed down, stepped on the air, tapped her toes, and a ripple appeared in the air. After she raised her foot, a blue shadow appeared in the ripple, which was a blue lotus.
, exudes a holy aura, and the sight of it makes people's hearts tremble and feel a sense of worship.
"What!" All the elders in the stands screamed, dumbfounded.
Chu Xingyao tapped his foot again, the air trembled again, another ripple rippled out, and another green lotus bloomed.
She took seven steps in a row and landed just on the ring, leaving seven holy green lotuses in the air behind her, which did not disperse for a long time.
"This is...this is...a lotus growing every step of the way!" The elders in the stands screamed in surprise.
