Zhou Chen continued to chat with Lie Tianzun about some things...
"Be careful, there is an aura approaching. It is the realm of the Great Foundation Establishment Realm. Use that black robe to avoid it." Suddenly, Lie Tianzun reminded.
Without saying a word, Zhou Chen returned to his original position, put on his black robe and activated his invisibility function, and quickly ran out of his residence.
A few breaths later, there was a loud bang, and the roof collapsed. A powerful shock wave swept around, leaving the house in a mess and filled with dust and smoke.
"Huh? He disappeared. This kid is really weird. A small innate realm can actually have such a method, hum!"
A black figure appeared in the dust and smoke in the house, and his face could not be seen clearly. He was standing in the ruins, searching for something. He had clearly felt Zhou Chen's aura before, but it disappeared in an instant.
"What happened? Was there an earthquake?"
"Which bastard makes so much noise in the middle of the night and demolishes the house?"
"Why are you making so much noise in the middle of the night? It's keeping people from sleeping. They'll have to watch the competition tomorrow."
…
The huge noise alarmed the disciples in the surrounding courtyard, who let out bursts of dissatisfied curses.
"We can't stay here for long. Today is your fate. Sooner or later, I'll chop you up alive, huh!" The black shadow muttered to himself, jumped out of the courtyard, and disappeared into the night.
Zhou Chen took off his robe and stood in the courtyard, frowning as he looked at the direction in which the black shadow was leaving.
"It was so dangerous, I almost fell down just now." Zhou Chen took a deep breath.
"It should be the elder from the daytime. I can sense it from his breath."
"Well, I guess it's him too. This old turtle must be from the Lin family. I'll kill him if I have the chance." Zhou Chen had already included Elder Lin in his must-kill list.
This man in black is Elder Lin. Zhou Chen has entered the top ten in the competition and is determined to enter the inner gate. He feels that letting Zhou Chen go to the inner gate will make it more difficult to kill Zhou Chen, even if he is an outsider.
The elders of the gate were not allowed to enter the inner gate, and tonight was the best time to kill Zhou Chen. Unexpectedly, Zhou Chen had a secret treasure and escaped the attack.
Although Elder Lin is a master of the Foundation Establishment Realm, Zhou Chen thinks that if he can just go to the inner sect, he still has the capital to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
This is also true. Elder Lin is now over sixty. He only reached the realm of foundation building in his forties. His realm has not improved in the past twenty years. His mediocre talent ends here. Therefore
I can only hang out in this outer door.
In the world of cultivation, basic potential is the most important, and if you do not grasp the golden age of cultivation, you will not be able to improve in the future unless you meet a great opportunity. Therefore, every sect attaches great importance to talented disciples with potential.
Training, because they represent the potential and upper limit, and also determine the rise and fall of the sect. Disciples with mediocre qualifications will not have much future in the sect.
"It seems that you have to improve your realm quickly, otherwise you will be killed before the curse breaks out." Lie Tianzun said teasingly.
Zhou Chen nodded. It seems that the first place in the outer sect competition must be won and he must enter the Purgatory Tower to practice. He must improve his realm and return to Qingyang City as soon as possible to solve the hidden dangers of the five major families.
Zhou Chen stopped talking and immediately found a corner to start practicing. The black vortex appeared behind him again. Without any surprise, he once again aroused the dissatisfaction of the disciple academy.
…
The next day's hour,
Just like yesterday, the Outer Sect martial arts venue was crowded with people again, and there were even more people than yesterday. Almost everyone from the Outer Sect came, including the handymen. Zhou Chen found Liu Dahai and the three of them in the venue, chatting easily. After all,
Except for Zhou Chen, everyone else had no pressure today.
After yesterday's competition, Liu Dahai and Zhang Erbao have improved to varying degrees. They have a deeper understanding of combat, and their spiritual aura is stronger than yesterday.
Today, not only the elders of the outer sect but also the elders of the inner sect appeared in the martial arts field. The outer sect disciples usually cannot see the elders of the inner sect, because the inner sect is in another area and is far away from the outer sect. Generally, the inner sect disciples
People rarely come to the outer gate.
Several inner sect elders have strong auras and are all strong men in the late and peak stages of the Cave Heaven Realm. As for the outer sect elders, except for Elder Lu, who is at the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Realm, the other outer sect elders are only at the Great Perfection or Peak Realm of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
If the elders of the outer sect want to be promoted to the elders of the inner sect, they must at least reach the late stage of the Cave Heaven Realm. The gap between them is too big, and it is basically hopeless for them.
"Today the competition will continue. The person who drew the sixth lottery yesterday will take the stage." Elder Lu did not say too much nonsense and directly announced that the competition would continue.
Currently, Zhou Chen, Liu Dahai, Zhang Erbao, Duan Shuiliu and Zhao Wuji are promoted to the top ten, and there are still five competitions left.
A man's figure jumped into the ring. The man's appearance was not outstanding, his face was stern, and he looked ahead expressionlessly.
Another figure jumped into the ring, a disciple at the eighth level of the Xiantian Realm.
The disciple looked at the stern man, his brows furrowed, his body shaking slightly, and a trace of fear in his eyes.
"You go down, I don't want to waste time." The cold man said calmly.
"Senior Brother Sun, I want to give it a try and please give me some advice." The disciple took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to raise his hands and said.
The stern man nodded slightly and said, "I'll give you a chance to strike. Don't blame me for being ruthless if I strike again."
The disciple's face was covered in cold sweat, his lips were tightly closed, and he held a long silver-white halberd tightly in his hand.
"Is that Sun Jiangtao who is ranked second on the prediction list?"
"It's indeed him. His aura is so terrifying that the disciple can't even breathe."
"I heard that he said yesterday that the only opponent in his eyes is Senior Brother Duan Shuiliu, and he doesn't pay attention to anyone else at all."
"Are you so arrogant? But he is really strong. He is already at the ninth level of the Xiantian Realm. It seems that his aura is not far from the Foundation Establishment Realm."
Everyone in the audience was talking a lot...
Zhou Chen watched the duel with great interest. In his opinion, Sun Jiangtao's strength was good and worthy of attention, but the battle should be over soon.
I saw the disciple holding the halberd in his hand with both hands, raising it above his head, and began to twist his hands alternately. The halberd slowly rotated. As the twisting speed of his hands accelerated, the halberd rotated rapidly, and the high-speed rotating halberd stirred.
It absorbs the surrounding spiritual energy, forming a vortex above its head. The violent spiritual energy whirlwind releases a strong wind, with the vortex as the center, forming a huge air column, spinning crazily in the field.
Everyone outside the court looked at the scene in front of them in surprise. Although the formation blocked the whirlwind, they could still feel its power. Sun Jiangtao's expression did not change and he looked at the scene in front of him calmly.
"Unparalleled Whirlwind Slash!"
Immediately, the disciple jumped up high, raised his hand and waved the silver halberd. The tip of the halberd carried a huge rotating pillar of air, and smashed towards Sun Jiangtao crazily.
Sun Jiangtao narrowed his eyes, and he had to say that this disciple's strength was stronger than he had expected, and he deserved his respect.
"Star-Shattering Fist!"
The next moment, Sun Jiangtao stirred, and the majestic ninth-level Xiantian realm spiritual energy burst out. The ground cracked under his feet, and he punched out, mixed with huge spiritual power, and the momentum was like a rainbow, hitting the wind column cyclone!
Bang!
A huge explosion resounded throughout the martial arts field, and the air column was smashed into pieces, turning into dots of starlight, scattered down, and disappeared. Before the power of the fist was exhausted, it hit the halberd directly.
Bang!
The halberd was directly knocked away, spinning countless times in the air before being inserted into the ring. The man was directly blasted dozens of feet by the force of the punch, and fell to the ground, with a trace of blood spilling from his mouth.
"I lost." The man slowly stood up, hugged his fists, put away his halberd, turned around and walked towards the audience. His face did not look too depressed, but looked magnanimous.
He understood that he had tried his best and how big the gap was, and he had no regrets in his heart.
There were bursts of applause from the audience...
The elders of the inner sect also smiled slightly, expressing satisfaction with Sun Jiangtao's strong performance and the disciple's martial arts potential.
Sun Jiangtao was as aloof as ever. He didn't pay attention to anything and walked straight down the ring with an expressionless face. After all, he already knew the result, so there was no disturbance in his heart. At this time, he just wanted to meet Senior Brother Duan Shuiliu in the qualifying match as soon as possible.
