"This... this?" Seeing that the trick was broken, the inner disciple was slightly startled. Instead of conserving his strength, he slapped the storage ring, and immediately a green-edged sword flew out, flashing with a cold light.
"Oh? A low-grade treasure?" Lin Lei groaned.
"What? Xu Run actually used a low-grade treasure, the Qingfeng Sword, to deal with such a monk who has perfected the elixir formation. Is he crazy?"
"Hmph, what do you know? This man is arrogant, and his arrogance is what makes him so arrogant. Besides, a lion can fight a rabbit with all his strength, let alone a madman like this!"
"Whoa!" The inner disciple drew his sword and swept out a large swath of sword light. Lin Lei flicked his finger, and a red light immediately sent the sword light away. At the same time, Lin Lei punched out, and the strong wind blew out.
The inner disciples were beaten away.
"Huh!" Everyone present took a breath of cold air when they saw this scene. At the level of the Great Perfection of the Dan Formation, they faced the middle stage of Nascent Soul and won completely. This...if they hadn't seen this with their own eyes, they wouldn't have seen it with their own eyes.
Don't believe it.
"This Huang Tianqiong is not in the realm of the Perfect Formation of Pills at all. He must also be hiding his cultivation level!" Zhao Wuji, the crown prince of Zhao Kingdom, thought gloomily in his heart.
After the inner disciple felt Lin Lei's momentum, he already knew that he would definitely lose. However, even so, he did not expect that he would lose so miserably. As for Lin Lei, he smiled bitterly, and he had already stepped into the tribulation.
In the later stage, even if you stand here and get slashed by this inner disciple, not only will you be fine, but you will probably be shocked to death. Therefore, in order not to shock the world, Lin Lei ended the battle with one move.
, so as not to have long nights and many dreams, and others will see something!
"I admit it!" Lin Lei said politely, cupping his fists at the inner disciple.
"Fellow Daoist Huang is superior in skill. I am convinced of my defeat. Please hold the token and go to the inner sect's peak palace. There will be people there to receive you!" The inner sect disciple also clasped his fists in return and said.
"Thank you!" Lin Lei said politely, and without even looking at Zhao Wuji, he soared into the sky and flew towards the inner gate mountain peak.
"Hmph! Arrogant person, I will make you pay a heavy price sooner or later!" Zhao Wuji roared with hatred, and finally landed on the platform of an inner disciple.
Lin Lei didn't take Zhao Wuji, the crown prince of Zhao, seriously. After all, he had reached the late stage of the Tribulation. The purpose of coming here was to investigate Zhang Miaohan, and he had no interaction with him.
At this moment, Lin Lei had already flown to the inner gate peak. However, there was a mountain guarding formation on the inner gate peak, which blocked Lin Lei. But then, with Lin Lei holding the token, the mountain guarding formation opened a hole and let him in.
"The Phoenix Sect is indeed an eighth-level sect. Even such an inner mountain peak has a mountain protection formation...!" Lin Lei secretly noticed all this in his heart and understood why he entered the Phoenix Sect without looking for it.
If you smell Zhang Miaohan's aura, it's possible that Zhang Miaohan is in a certain place, and that place happens to be isolated by the mountain protection formation.
With this idea in mind, Lin Lei had already walked into the palace on the inner mountain peak. In the palace, there was only an old man with a long beard, sitting cross-legged in front of the mahogany square table, with his eyebrows lowered and his eyes closed.
"I have been selected as the inner disciple Huang Tianqiong. This is my token!" Lin Lei put the token on the mahogany square table, looked at the old man with a beard, and said.
The old man with a long beard pretended to be serious, but in fact, he looked Lin Lei up and down with his spiritual sense. With Lin Lei's spiritual sense equivalent to that of a mysterious immortal, every move of the old man with a long beard could not escape his discernment. What's more, this long-bearded old man looked at him up and down.
The bearded old man was only in the early stages of his tribulation.
The old man with a long beard didn't feel anything on Lin Lei's body, nor did he find any signs of hidden cultivation. This made him feel strange, because in the past, monks who applied for recruitment and were successfully selected as inner disciples usually hid their strength.
Most of them are around the Nascent Soul realm, otherwise, they would simply not be able to pass the Inner Disciple Battle level.
However, this monk named Huang Tianqiong is only in the realm of the Great Perfection of Alchemy Formation. It is absolutely impossible for him to pass the Inner Disciple Battle. But since he cannot detect it, there are only two possibilities. One is that he really hides it.
The other is that his cultivation far exceeds his own.
When he thought of this, the bearded old man shrank his neck, threw the token to Lin Lei again, and said: "Xin Neifeng, No. 1, receive the Phoenix Sect disciple gift and the key to No. 300 compound, let's go!"
Lin Lei took the token, gave a small salute to the old man with a long beard, and flew to Xinneifeng. After that, after receiving the disciple's gift and the key to No. 300 compound, it took him half an hour to find the compound.
After giving a wry smile, he turned into a stream of light, officially moved into the Phoenix Sect, and became an inner disciple of the Phoenix Sect.
The new inner peak is a transitional peak for some new inner disciples of the Phoenix Sect. This is just like Lin Lei’s courtyard number. There are 30 billion courtyards in total, and Lin Lei has no relationship, so he was assigned to this one.
The spiritual energy is slightly thin and the terrain is remote.
However, Lin Lei had no objection to this. After all, his purpose was not to become a disciple of the Phoenix Sect, but to find out information about Zhang Miaohan.
"Ten days later, there will be an inner sect competition. The top ten will be eligible to participate in the core disciples' evaluation. During the competition, the Phoenix Sect will send a real sect elder with a cultivation level of up to the earthly immortal realm as the examiner.
, sit in charge of the entire competition!”
"Earth Immortal Realm...! This is more difficult! However, even if one's cultivation level is exposed, it is only in the late stage of transcending the tribulation, and it is completely different from one's true strength. Therefore, even if he takes the first place in a high-profile manner,
, except for some minor troubles, there should be no uncontrollable situations. What's more, in order to further destroy the Phoenix Sect, I must use such an attitude to attract the attention of the upper levels of the Phoenix Sect! Therefore, under subjective thinking, I will definitely not
Guess your true identity!" Lin Lei secretly planned the next step-by-step plan, thinking in his heart.
"Huang Tianqiong, my young master has arrived, why don't you come out to see him?" At this moment, a piercing scream rushed into Lin Lei's compound. Lin Lei sneered and said secretly: "I don't know whether to live or die!" He took a step forward.
Standing at the entrance of the courtyard, he glanced coldly at the dozen or so monks in front of him with varying strengths. Finally, he locked his eyes on the young man in white in front of him and asked: "Zhao Wuji, what are you doing?"
What's up?"
"Huang Tianqiong, the location of the compound assigned to you by Dazong will make it easy for me to find you! I will give you two options now. One is to surrender to me and be my dog for a hundred years. The other is to be betrayed by me.
Abandon your cultivation and you will be humiliated for the rest of your life!" Zhao Wuji said coldly, still showing his arrogant and proud attitude.
Lin Lei's eyes were filled with coldness, and he said coldly: "Zhao Wuji, and you bunch of rubbish, get out of here quickly before I get angry, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"Oh, your subordinates are ruthless? You don't even consider your own weight, and you actually say such arrogant words in front of us! Now you are an inner disciple of the Phoenix Sect, and you must abide by the Phoenix Sect's rules in everything.
Fight! However, what you said just now seems to be a provocation to my young master! You have violated the Phoenix Sect's rules, what crime should you do?" The boy next to Zhao Wuji has a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, but he is in the early stage of pill formation.
With his cultivation level, he actually pretended to be powerful, and relying on his identity as the young master of his family, he pointed at Lin Lei's nose and threatened.
"Are you also a disciple of the Phoenix Sect?" Lin Lei narrowed his eyes and asked.
When the boy saw that Lin Lei was not intimidated by him and caused him to lose face in front of his young master, he immediately felt resentful and said in a sharp voice: "My young master is a disciple of the inner sect. I take care of my young master's daily life."
, what do you want?"
"Oh? So, you are not a disciple of the Phoenix Sect?" After Lin Lei finished saying this, his murderous aura suddenly erupted. With one punch, a red light shot out. Before anyone could react, the murderous aura suddenly erupted.
He threw the boy in front of the door, and there was a loud bang. The boy's head exploded on the spot. The headless corpse stood on the spot and spat out a pillar of blood more than one meter high. After convulsing twice,
Then he fell to the ground with a pop.
When Zhao Wuji and the others reacted to the sudden change, the boy's blood had already splattered on their clothes and faces, and Zhao Wuji immediately ran away in anger.
"You arrogant and rude murderer, I'm going to kill you!"
"Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao, this guy is not easy to mess with. We have a long way to go, so don't get to know him first. Don't forget the rules, the rules!" A group of people behind Zhao Wuji saw Zhao Wuji running away and quickly stopped him.
To avoid breaking the rules.
"Let me go, let me go, I'm going to kill him, I'm going to kill him!" Zhao Wuji yelled crazily, his eyes bloodshot.
Lin Lei sneered, and with a wave of his hand, Zhao Wuji and the others were immediately lifted off the New Inner Peak by a gust of strong wind, floating in the void in a daze.
Under the blow of a gentle phoenix, Zhao Wuji woke up first, and then he was frightened into a cold sweat, and murmured: "Just now, what happened just now? Why did we suddenly fly here?"
"Brother Zhao, then...that person's cultivation level is probably far above ours. We'd better not offend him again!"
"Yes, Brother Zhao, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. We'd better withdraw first!"
"Let's go!" No one had to say it, Zhao Wuji was trembling in his heart, his clothes were soaked with cold sweat, and he knew he had been kicked onto the iron plate.
Lin Lei stood in the courtyard of No. 300, looking at Zhao Wuji and his group of people running away in embarrassment. He felt funny in his heart. He shook his head and said to himself: "This kind of person is not strong enough and wants to show off everywhere.
Why are there people everywhere? However, my mentality was immature, so I couldn't hold it back in the end and got really angry. Fortunately, I didn't kill this Zhao Wuji, otherwise, although I wasn't afraid of that sect rule, it would delay me.
A lot of things!”
During the ten days of the Inner Sect Competition, Lin Lei used spirit stones to make friends with a large number of Inner Sect disciples. Among them were some senior Inner Sect disciples whose cultivation levels were above the Nascent Soul Realm and below the Tribulation-Transcending Realm.
During the conversation with these inner disciples, Lin Lei also made some insinuations and asked about Zhang Miaohan. However, none of these inner disciples knew about this person, which made Lin Lei feel very strange. However, he did not continue the topic.
, Obviously, the status of these inner disciples is too low to have access to the secrets of high-level officials.
But making friends with these inner disciples is just a matter of luck. If we really ask about Zhang Miaohan's situation, Lin Lei's plan will be greatly simplified and the time will be shortened a lot.
Ten days later, the inner sect competition finally began. Lin Lei had already signed up three days ago, and he also brought his strength to the later stage of the Tribulation. As soon as he appeared on the stage, he immediately attracted the attention of many people, who were all shocked.
Looking at Lin Lei, among these people were the disciples of the inner sect who had become friends with Lin Lei these days, and even Zhao Wuji, who was new to the inner sect.
At this moment, Zhao Wuji also improved his cultivation level, but in front of Lin Lei, his cultivation level was just like an ant. Therefore, at this moment, Zhao Wuji had already found a hidden alley to hide, for fear of being seen by Lin Lei, and slapped him
Kill him. After all, the Phoenix Sect still knows which one is more important, a disciple in the late stage of transcending tribulation or a disciple in the Nascent Soul realm.
The Inner Sect Competition is the only way for Inner Sect disciples to advance to become core disciples. The participating disciples were so crowded that they almost filled the entire Martial Arts Peak. Everyone was dragging their Taoist comrades and talking about this year's rookies in the Inner Sect.
, as well as the older generation of experts, analyze who will be in the top ten of this competition.
However, Lin Lei was not interested in this at all. After all, these inner disciples were still too weak in his eyes.
Fortunately, Lin Lei didn't wait long. Under a burst of majestic pressure, all the inner disciples present shut their mouths, and the entire Yanwu Peak fell into silence.
Lin Lei squinted his eyes and looked at the black spots flying closer and closer from a distance. Not long after, a middle-aged man wearing a dark blue robe flew into his eyes and landed steadily on the rostrum, coldly
He glanced at everyone present and made a sonorous and powerful voice like a bell: "Inner disciples, I will be the examiner of this inner sect competition. I warn you, never violate the rules of the competition.
Use elixirs that suddenly increase your strength. Otherwise, if you are caught, you will be severely punished! Well, the inner sect competition and the Phoenix Sect have been held thousands of times. You all understand the specific rules. As for
For those newcomers, please ask the deacons and elders! Now, I announce the start of the inner sect competition!"
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, the silent Yan Wufeng exploded once again, and a new round of discussions began.
"Damn, the higher-ups didn't make a mistake? Why did they send this murderous elder? His character is famous for being weird and cruel!"
"Damn it, you don't want to live anymore? How dare you talk about the murderous elder behind your back!"
"Okay, stop talking, the first round of the competition is about to begin, hurry up and take advantage of this time to adjust your condition to the best!"
"Murderous elder?" Lin Lei groaned, looking at the middle-aged man sitting on the main seat, who looked like an old god, and clearly sensed the murderous aura of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood as well as the fluctuation of the Earth Immortal's cultivation.
"The combat power of this murderous elder should not be much worse than that of Li Mo. There are some things that I think I can try from him!" Lin Lei showed a sinister smile. The murderous elder in the main position suddenly opened his eyes and frowned.
Wrinkling slightly, he thought to himself: Why did I feel so frightened just now? Could it be that someone is plotting against me? Humph, I must have taken the position of the Ninth Elder, harboring a grudge and holding back some evil tricks to deal with me?
Humph, you really overestimate your capabilities.
At this time, an elder deacon walked onto the martial arts platform and shouted loudly: "Quiet, quiet, quiet! I announce the start of the first round of the competition. There are a hundred martial arts stages here for defense and attack.
The competition will be carried out in different ways, and at the end of the first day, the 100 people who have successfully defended the ring will automatically be promoted to the top 100 and enter the next competition!"
"Now, I will randomly select one hundred inner disciples from the roster of inner disciples to defend the ring!"
"Sun Wu, Wang Shang, Kong Hai... Huang Tian, Feng Sheng, Jiang Hai Shu...!"
After a while, one hundred places for the challenge were announced. Every inner disciple who was selected hung his head and jumped onto the platform. After all, no matter how brave and good at fighting these one hundred inner disciples were,
After countless rounds of wheel battles, I am afraid that I will be exhausted and defeated!
Therefore, I have to say that these one hundred inner disciples guarding the ring are really quite impressive!
However, as soon as the hundred inner disciples guarding the platform jumped onto the platform, they were all scrambling for someone to attack. This made Lin Lei confused. Why did these people rush to occupy the arena just after the competition started?
Arena? Aren’t you afraid of the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind?
After Lin Lei watched curiously for a while, he realized that it turned out that these inner disciples who occupied the ring would have a half-hour rest after each ring, and no one was allowed to challenge them. In this way, they would
You can recover your cultivation in the arena, and the next round of attacking and defending will not begin until half an hour has passed, or the rest time is automatically lifted.
In this way, as long as they last for twelve hours and get through this day, these one hundred disciples who guard the ring will naturally join the ranks of the top one hundred.
However, the idea is good, but the reality is extremely cruel. The inner disciples who captured the arena in the second round were defeated by the stronger inner disciples in the third round before they could even sit down. This was repeated over and over again in six rounds.
Hours later, one hundred arenas had changed hands at least three times. This shows how fierce and cruel the competition for core disciple qualifications is.
Six hours later, Lin Lei also understood the rules and some precautions of the competition, and walked to one of the arenas where the break was about to end. There were already many people waiting for the next challenge.
"Hey, who are you? If you want to challenge, go to the back and line up!" A monk who was in the middle of the tribulation shouted dissatisfiedly when he saw Lin Lei walking straight to the ring.
