After the gate, there was another long and narrow passage. Ye Mu walked in it for several minutes before a light appeared at the end of the passage. Ye Mu walked slowly along the light path, and another empty hall appeared in front of him.
The space of this hall was much larger than the previous space. A faint stream of light poured down from above. Ye Mu looked up and saw that the dome of the hall was inlaid with colorful bright jewels. Those lights came from
emanating from it.
After scanning around, I didn't find anything else, no treasures, and no spiritual puppets similar to the ones before.
Just when Ye Mu was confused, a creaking sound came, and then in his somewhat stunned gaze, a figure walked out from behind the bronze door on the other side of the hall.
The person who came had a tough face, sharp edges and corners, a trace of depression between his eyebrows, a tall figure, and was wearing a black gown. The aura emanating from his body made Ye Mu feel a lot of pressure.
But at this moment, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, which made Ye Mu feel a little dazed. Who is this guy? He didn't know him.
Under Ye Mu's confused gaze, the young man in black finally said: "Junior Ye, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Hearing this, Ye Mu became even more confused. Just as he was about to ask, the young man in black spoke again: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Xu Ye. I am third in the rankings of the Upper House. You must have heard of it. I am here as a
If your opponent defeats me, you will be the first in this freshman competition."
As the opponent's words came out, Ye Mu's face gradually became solemn. He was ranked third in the upper house rankings. This was not comparable to the random ranking of this freshman. Moreover, Ye Mu also knew something about the opponent's name. Xu Ye, and him
Generally speaking, they also understand the potential, and it is an extremely strong spear potential.
However, this person was not a genius like them. During the imperial examination that year, he had not yet understood the power of the spear, and his strength was average, so he failed the examination. After that, he fell silent. He did not even take the graduation examination for several years.
Participated, and finally a year ago, he suddenly rose up, understood the power of the gun, and went straight in front of many students in the upper school.
If Mu Xiaoya, who was ranked first, and the guy who was ranked second hadn't been too perverted, his rise would have been almost unstoppable.
Ye Mu pondered, still a little puzzled. If you defeat him, you will be the first? Do Xiaowan and Chu Nandie have no opponents?
Seeing the doubtful look on his face, Xu Ye smiled faintly and said: "This hall is not fixed. There is a formation here that can be moved randomly. I was arranged to come in by Dean Lin before.
After activating the formation and moving the formation, it finally stayed here between the three portals."
After hearing what he said, Ye Mu's face twitched slightly, what are you doing? Is it so casual? Is he so unlucky?
It's not that he's afraid of the opponent, but after a series of battles, he is indeed a little tired now, and his spiritual power is also consumed a lot, and what's the benefit of defeating this guy? You won't reward him with another great mysterious spiritual technique, right?
Thinking in his mind, Ye Mu said: "What's the reward for being the first in the competition?"
"I don't know about this, but the prize was given by Dean Lin personally, so it must not be something simple." Xu Ye said with a smile.
The dean gave it to him? That must be extraordinary. In this way, Ye Mu no longer had any dissatisfaction with the current battle. He changed his mind and asked again: "What about Xiaowan and the others?"
"If they passed the checkpoint, they should be outside the main hall." Xu Ye said slowly.
"Okay." Ye Mu smiled bitterly, a little helpless, he was the most tired, but...as long as there is a reward, everything will be easy.
Seeing that he had no more problems, Xu Ye said: "You have been through the battle before, and I won't take advantage of you. You can recover for a while, and then we can start quickly."
Hearing this, Ye Mu didn't say anything like not using it, because he understood how tyrannical the other party was. Even in his heyday, he would lose more than he would win.
No nonsense, Ye Mu sat down, took out some elixirs and swallowed them, then entered the state of cultivation.
The spiritual energy on the entire mountain is extremely abundant. Although the spiritual energy in this hall is not as good as the Ninth Spring, it is not much different. It is undoubtedly a sweet rain for Ye Mu now.
As he entered the state of cultivation, spiritual energy continued to flow into his body, limbs and bones. The power of the elixir was quickly dissolved, repairing Ye Mu's flesh and blood, and the almost exhausted spiritual energy in his body gradually recovered.
Feeling that the injuries in his body were repaired, the discomfort everywhere gradually disappeared, and the strength of his limbs was slightly enhanced, Ye Mu felt a burst of joy in his heart.
Speeding up the recovery, after about a stick of incense, Ye Mu stopped practicing, stood up, and stretched his muscles. Feeling that his body was full of strength again, Ye Mu couldn't help but stretch a little comfortably.
If he were outside, it would take at least a few hours for him to recover. This space is truly a treasure.
"Okay?" A clear voice came. Ye Mu looked around and saw Xu Ye looking at him in surprise.
"Yeah." Ye Mu nodded slightly.
"Then come on, let me see what's so great about a guy at your age who has understood the power of the sword!" Xu Ye laughed loudly, and the spiritual power all over his body began to stir.
"Yangquan Realm!"
As soon as Xu Ye's aura was revealed, Ye Mu felt very clearly that this guy's strength had truly reached the Yangquan realm, while the previous blood-robed man and the spirit puppet were only half-step to the Yangquan realm.
And that kind of strength makes him exhausted, and this Xu Ye is a whole level higher than him!
Moreover, in addition to realm, this guy also understood the power of the spear, so Ye Mu had almost no chance of winning against him.
Ye Mu's face was solemn. This Xu Ye was definitely the most powerful opponent he had ever encountered since he started practicing. Taking a deep breath, the spiritual power in Ye Mu's body began to flow at a high speed.
Bang!
Xu Ye's footsteps stomped heavily on the ground, and the entire hall seemed to tremble for a moment. Then his figure suddenly rose up, and when he clenched his hands, powerful spiritual power suddenly surged out, and in the blink of an eye he
Suddenly, a huge light seal condensed in front of him!
The light seal glows with golden light and looks extremely solid and majestic, as if it were poured with real gold. It is in the shape of a palm, giving it an indestructible and majestic feeling.
"boom!"
The golden handprint whizzed down with an extremely sharp and violent palm wind, and slapped Ye Mu hard on the head.
This kind of fluctuation, if it were an ordinary Hinayana in the Yinchi realm, I would probably be slapped to death!
However, Ye Mu was obviously not in the ordinary Yin Pond realm. He was not panicked by Xu Ye's attack. His spiritual power wrapped his hands, his body shook, and sword shadows emerged from his body and attacked forward.
"boom!"
The roar echoed in the hall, and the shadow of the sword quickly dissipated under the golden light seal. Upon seeing this, Ye Mu's figure surged up, and he attacked with a pair of fists carrying ice crystals.
Ye Mu is now accustomed to adding the power of the sword seal to his hands, and seems to like this way of fighting.
"Bang!"
The sound rang out again, and the golden handprint was directly shattered by Ye Mu's fists.
"Huh?" Seeing that his handprint was broken by Ye Mu in this way, Xu Ye also had a look of surprise on his face. Although he did not underestimate Ye Mu, he thought that he could break it with his Yinchi realm Hinayana strength.
It won't be easy either.
He didn't expect that the other party could crack it so easily. Seeing this, he became a little more serious.
In fact, Ye Mu was not as easy as he looked. He used two sword seals to break the hand seal, and with the help of sixth-grade spiritual energy, he could barely break it. After all, the opponent was a genuine Yangquan realm.
Feeling the soreness and numbness in his fist, Ye Mu had no time to pay attention to it, because the opponent had already passed over again, and he also stood up and faced him.
The two figures collided with each other with fists and feet, and in a few breaths they exchanged dozens of moves.
"Bang!"
The two figures separated after a collision, and each took a few steps back. Ye Mu stared at the other, and the yang energy in Xu Ye made him extremely uncomfortable.
Because this kind of aura has a strong suppressive power against the evil spirit, he was extremely uncomfortable after a confrontation.
Feeling the burning pain coming from his body, Ye Mu slowly pulled out his sword. He couldn't fight with this guy hand-to-hand, so it was more comfortable to use the sword.
Seeing this, Xu Ye raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I thought you were going to keep using your fists."
"The taste of gangrene is unpleasant, so it's more convenient to do this." Ye Mu shrugged.
"Haha." Hearing this, Xu Ye also laughed loudly, and then rushed towards Ye Mu again.
Ye Mu raised his sword forward, raised his finger in the air, and placed two sword seals on the sword body. The sword body was immediately covered with ice crystals, and a biting chill spread instantly.
The ice was flying and the light was flowing, forming a cold storm and rushing towards Xu Ye.
Bang bang!
Looking at the sword shadow mixed with the howling cold wind, Xu Ye frowned slightly and quickly formed seals with his hands. Two golden light seals condensed out in an instant, suppressing the storm.
"Little Thunder Light Sword!"
However, at the moment when the ice crystal storm was destroyed, a figure flashed out from behind him like a ghost. Ye Mu held a long sword, the shadow of the sword danced, thunder light rushed, and suddenly, a dull thunder sounded.
The shadow of the thunder sword instantly enveloped the space several feet around Xu Ye.
Facing Ye Mu's offensive, Xu Ye also smiled, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. It seemed that he had really underestimated Ye Mu. Although the latter's strength was not as strong as the Hinayana of the Yin Pond realm, this offensive was approaching the Yang Quan realm.
He grasped it in his palm, and the brilliant spiritual power instantly condensed in his palm, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a black spear. A strange black energy lingered on the spear, and a thick fiery meaning emanated from it.
"break!"
The spear swung horizontally and then spun rapidly, the astonishing heat wave spread out immediately, fiery red light flashed, and the blazing energy swept away, turning into numerous spear shadows and stabbing Ye Mu.
"Clang!"
"laugh!"
The sound of gold and iron sounded, and Ye Mu felt as if the sword in his hand was being smelted. He felt inexplicably frightened, and the cold energy surged out again, barely offsetting the burning feeling.
Then he quickly stepped back a few feet, looking at the black spear in Xu Ye's hand with some vigilance. Looking carefully, there were mottled lines on the spear, and it was flashing red light, and there was an amazing amount of heat coming from it.
