Registration for the Qi Refining Competition within the sect has begun.
Only monks with cultivation levels above the eighth level in the Qi Refining Stage can sign up. The registration period is half a month, and monks with a bone age of over 160 years old are not allowed to sign up.
This is also for the rational allocation of cultivation resources.
Monks in the Qi Refining Stage only have a lifespan of 200 years. Monks over 160 years old will have their spiritual power gradually dissipated and their bodies will begin to age due to their limited lifespan. There is almost no possibility of advanced foundation building.
In the history of spiritual practice, there are only a handful of people who are over one hundred and sixty years old but are lucky enough to build a foundation.
When Yun Ling went to Tianxing Peak to register after leaving customs, there were less than three days left.
The jade talisman number she got for registration was Jiujiujiu, but when Luo Ninghuan signed up at the last minute on the last day, the jade talisman number was 1200.
It can be seen that there are 1,200 monks who meet the conditions to participate in the competition this time. Xuanling Sect is worthy of being the second sect in Longyou Realm.
The competition lasts for thirty days, during which the top 100 people who are qualified to enter the Longyou Secret Realm will be selected.
When these hundred people successfully return from the secret realm, the sect will give them foundation-building pills.
The top ten will also receive magical jade tokens, and can enter the fifth floor of the Zongmen Sutra Pavilion to choose a magical power and secret technique to practice. The top three can also choose an additional treasure after building the foundation.
Therefore, the competition held once every thirty years is the most anticipated event for Xuanling Sect disciples.
From the first to the tenth day of the competition, six arenas will be set up in Xuanling Square. Ten rounds of competition will be held in each arena every day, and 600 people will be selected from the 1,200 people.
After all, it is a competition between the same sects. During the competition, you are not allowed to use second-grade or above talismans, you are not allowed to hurt others maliciously, and you are not allowed to take pills that replenish spiritual energy to delay the battle.
If each round of competition lasts for more than an hour, a referee from the Jindan period will make a victory or defeat decision to avoid delaying time due to familiarity between the two people competing.
The second competition was from the eleventh to the fifteenth day, with 300 winners among the 600 people.
The third competition was from the sixteenth to the eighteenth day, and half of the three hundred people were eliminated.
From the 19th to the 21st day, only three arenas were left for the fourth competition. The remaining 150 people were equally divided into each arena to compete, and the 75 winners were selected for the next competition.
.
The other 75 people who were eliminated will draw 25 defenders at the beginning of the fifth competition. The remaining 50 people who have not been drawn can challenge the defenders. Each person can only challenge once and is challenged.
Players can only be challenged once, and the challenge time is until the end of the fifth game.
The fifth competition lasted from the 22nd to the 23rd day. Seventy-five monks had a bye. Thirty-seven monks were selected from the competition. A total of thirty-eight monks could enter the next competition.
In the sixth game, on the twenty-fourth day, nineteen monks were victorious.
There was a truce on the twenty-fifth day, and in the seventh test on the twenty-sixth day, one person got a bye and was directly promoted to the top ten. The other nine of the eighteen monks who won were promoted to the top ten.
After three days of rest, the eighth game is scheduled for the 30th day.
The top ten will enter the spiritual ball arena specially set up by the sect for the disciples within the sect, and the top three will be selected based on the number of spirit balls shot down.
Yun Ling was pretty lucky. The first competition was scheduled for the fourth day. His opponent was a female disciple of Lingmu Peak who was at the ninth level of Qi refining.
This female disciple has only nine levels of cultivation, so she should rarely fight in martial arts.
Yun Ling's Qianyou Needle suddenly split three times and attacked her in the three directions to her left, right, and right. Her footwork was confused, and after a cry of surprise, she fell onto the stage, leaving her speechless.
I don’t know how this female cultivator reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. She is too weak.
The sect's candidates for the pairwise competition are all intentionally paired up in the first round. Disciples who are at the tenth level of Qi Refining and the Great Perfection of Qi Refining are usually matched up with disciples who are at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining.
.
Strive for an overwhelming victory and reserve strength for the next few competitions.
There were very few close and exciting battles in the days before the competition, so except for Luo Ninghuan's competition, when Yun Ling went to cheer for her senior sister, she spent the rest of the time practicing in the cave.
...
"Xunyang Peak, Luo Lie."
"Yuzhuo Peak, Yunling."
In the second competition, Yun Ling was scheduled to fight on the twelfth day against Luo Lie, a male cultivator from Xunyang Peak who was also at the tenth level of Qi Refining Stage.
After Luo Lie knew that the female cultivator in front of him was a true disciple of Yuzhuo Peak, he did not dare to be careless.
As soon as the game started, they launched an all-out attack, intending to win a quick victory.
His marksmanship was so fierce that Yun Ling's defensive wind shield was directly cut open. Fortunately, she had the Swinging Step and managed to avoid it in time.
After understanding Luo Lie's attack methods, Yun Ling used the Yun Luo Umbrella to protect him, and retreated while fighting. He did not plan to defend the enemy head-on, but intended to consume the opponent's spiritual power.
Luo Lie majored in fire-based exercises, considered himself to be an expert in marksmanship, and believed in defeating ten enemies with one force.
But the woman in front of her had a nimble self-cultivation method, and her steps were like a fish swimming in the water.
He couldn't get close at all, and she easily deflected several of his full-force attacks.
He couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so he directly used his remaining spiritual power to launch three consecutive attacks of wild flames.
The gun body was wrapped in raging fire and flew up into the air and headed straight for Yun Ling, striking three times in succession without any pause.
She could barely avoid the first blow, and blocked the second blow with the Yunluo Umbrella. The third blow was unavoidable, so she directly summoned Qianyou Needle.
The tip of the needle is facing the tip of the gun, the sharp points are facing each other.
Just when the two magic weapons were stuck, Qianyou Needle suddenly split into two.
The second small needle passed through the flames and pierced Luo Lie.
Luo Lie didn't expect that after he used the three consecutive attacks of Crazy Flame, while Yun Ling was busy defending, he could actually use the offensive weapon while being distracted.
Although the attack power was not strong, he was not aware of it and was directly stabbed in the left leg. After staggering a few steps, he half-knelt on the ring.
"Accept." Yun Ling said softly.
Luo Lie returned the greeting, turned around and left the ring without saying a word.
He thought he could be among the top 150, but he met Yun Ling.
This woman's footwork was excellent and she was very restrained in his marksmanship. It was just bad luck on his part, which was a pity.
In the third game, Yun Ling met a Liuguang Peak disciple.
Liuguang Peak disciples are all good at setting up formations to defend against the enemy, but Yun Ling launched a fierce offensive when he came up. He could only throw out a few talismans in order to buy time to set up the formation, but found that the several talismans that the opponent also threw at him were more powerful, resulting in
He didn't even have time to set up the formation before he was burned to ashes by the first-grade flame talisman.
He was overwhelmed at the moment, and Yun Ling took the opportunity to press him step by step and knock him off the ring.
"May I ask, senior sister, what kind of talisman is used?"
This disciple clearly felt that the power of the talisman thrown by Yun Ling was one or two points greater than the one he used. It was not a second-grade talisman, otherwise the monks in charge would suspend the competition.
"It's a first-grade flame talisman painted by my senior sister Luo Ninghuan."
Yun Ling remembered that one day her senior sister had a whim and said she wanted to sell talismans to earn spiritual stones, so she took out a talisman from her storage bag and showed it to this disciple.
Promote it for senior sister and it will be easier to sell charms in the future.
In the fourth session, she met a disciple of Lingmu Peak named Liu Bizhi who had reached the Dzogchen stage of Qi refining.
Yun Ling has seen many competitions between Lingmu Peak disciples and knows that most of them practice wood-based techniques, and most of them use the seeds of spiritual plants to attack.
For example, the sharp vines, highly poisonous pollen, etc. Lingmu Feng's technique can instantly cause them to sprout, grow and attack the enemy. Their strength should not be underestimated.
Therefore, when Liu Bizhi kept urging the spiritual seeds to attack her on the ring, she did not dare to take it lightly.
He sent out wind blades one after another to cut off all the vines that had not grown sharp thorns. He also pulled out the purple orchid hairpin given by Luo Ninghuan from the bun, and kept spinning around to attack Liu Bizhi.
Liu Bizhi retreated and Yun Ling attacked.
The two of them chased each other for several laps in the ring unknowingly. When Yun Ling chased her to the center of the ring again, the panting Liu Bizhi smiled brightly at her.
Alarm bells rang in her heart. Before she could distance herself, the situation on the stage was already changing.
It's a good move to invite you into the urn.
At this moment, she was in a fantasy land of flowers, filled with fragrance and mist, and Liu Bizhi had long disappeared.
Presumably, during the chase between the two, Liu Bizhi not only planted vine spiritual seeds to block Yun Ling, but also quietly planted low spiritual flower seeds to set up the formation.
However, she was too focused on destroying the tall vines and did not pay attention to the petite flowers. Inadvertently, Liu Bizhi completed the formation.
Outside the array, Liu Bizhi took out a green wooden bow, which opened like an autumn moon across the sky.
Arrow clusters flashed green and came through the air, heading straight for Yun Ling!
