"This..." Elder Hunyuan stretched out his fingers and tapped lightly on the table, but he had some thoughts of his own in his heart.
It is true that the Moyue Clan has enmity with the Qin Clan, but these ghosts are not good things either. As the saying goes, those who are not of my race must have different hearts. Cooperating with them is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger.
I was thinking this in my heart, but there was a completely different expression on my face. I cupped my hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness, His Majesty the Ghost Emperor. Personally, I am willing to cooperate with you. However, the matter is serious, so I am sorry.
Even though he is the great elder, he cannot make the final decision alone and needs to discuss it with the wizards of each tribe."
"Yes, but the war is urgent and I can't wait too long." The Ghost Emperor raised his head and reminded in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I know what's going on."
…
The two chatted for a few more words, and then Haotian Ghost Emperor stood up and left.
Elder Hunyuan also sent him off politely.
However, when he walked to a deserted corner, the playful expression on Haotian Ghost Emperor's face suddenly disappeared, and his face was replaced by haze. He turned his head and looked at somewhere in the Star Palace, with a trace of greed flashing in his eyes.
In the quiet room just now, Elder Hunyuan also had a serious expression, clapped his hands, and a tall, thin wizard with a horse face came to the room.
He bent down and saluted: "Elder, what are your orders?"
"Give me the order to pick some clever outer disciples to monitor the Haotian Ghost Emperor."
"Outer disciple?" The horse-faced wizard looked surprised. The so-called outer disciples are mortals without spiritual roots. They usually serve the wizard and do some chores.
After a moment of hesitation: "Elder, are you sure you are not mistaken? Do you really want to send those outer disciples?"
"Idiot. Who do you think the other party is? The Ghost Emperor is at the same level as me. Even wizards at the Dan Condensation stage cannot escape his consciousness. Instead of doing this, it is better to send mortals to do this. Instead, it will not work.
It’s easy to arouse the other party’s suspicion.”
"That's it. I understand." The horse-faced monk bowed respectfully and stepped back.
"Old Haotian, you really don't know the purpose of your coming here?" Elder Hunyuan showed a trace of ridicule on his lips.
…
However, after Lin Xuan escaped from danger, he immediately returned to the inn without hesitation, broke through the restrictions, and after entering the room, Lin Xuan felt his feet go weak and lay down on the bed.
so close!
Why did the Haotian Ghost Emperor come here?
The teleportation array has obviously been destroyed by himself. Could it be that he forced his way in from the periphery of the Kuiyin Mountain Range?
There is a slight possibility. Although this place is dangerous, with his magical power comparable to that of a monk in the infant stage, it is not impossible if he grits his teeth and breaks through.
But what is the purpose of this guy coming here?
But soon, Lin Xuan shook his head. This had nothing to do with him, no matter what. He could never come for a nobody like me.
It seems that Guiluo City has been breached, otherwise with his dignity as the Ghost Emperor, he would never have gone deep into the hinterland of Youzhou alone.
To be fair, after seeing this dangerous guy, Lin Xuan even had the idea of leaving. If he was discovered, he would die without a burial place.
However, although he was frightened in his heart, Lin Xuan still suppressed this impulse. Without a map, even if he wanted to leave, he would only die. Moreover, if he left like this before he got the elixir, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
If you think about it carefully, it should be impossible for the other party to appear at the witchcraft conference.
First of all, he is a ghost after all. Even if he has great strength, he is no different from a human on the surface. But just in case, he will probably stay in seclusion.
Secondly, the purpose of the witchcraft conference is to compete for the ownership of the elixir. The only ones sent are young wizards from each tribe, whose cultivation level is only around the foundation building stage. The Ghost Emperor should not be interested in this kind of level competition.
Now that he had made this judgment, Lin Xuan decided to take the risk and stay.
The temptation of the elixir to him was very great.
However, Lin Xuan did not dare to go out casually anymore, so he stayed in the post house to rest, and had nothing to do all night. The next day, the witchcraft conference officially began.
A series of ancestral rituals were held first, presided over by several elders of the Kuiyue tribe.
Lin Xuan turned his eyes and looked at the old guys in front of him. His heart trembled. The Kuiyue tribe was worthy of being the leader among dozens of tribes. Just a few of the people he sent out were all wizards at the Dan Condensation stage, especially the one in the middle.
It has reached the peak realm, and it only takes a few more years of practice to retreat to the Nascent Soul realm.
Compared with the Tiancang tribe, the strength of the two is simply different.
In fact, in addition to the Kuiyue tribe, there are also some large tribes. After these years of recuperation, their strength has also recovered a lot, and the number of wizards has been rising steadily.
He could see the eyes of the dead leaves next to him were filled with tears. According to him, during the prehistoric period, the Tiancang Tribe was one of the few large tribes of the Moyue Tribe, not inferior to the Kuiyue Tribe, but they suffered too many losses in the war with the Qin Tribe.
It's terrible.
He had high hopes for this big test, hoping that Lin Xuan could win a few more games so that he could get more elixirs.
Except for small tribes like Tiancang tribe, other larger tribes have more than one person participating in the competition.
Adding together dozens of tribes, there are nearly a hundred wizards who are going to compete on the stage, and their cultivation levels are also uneven. Due to the age limit, it is naturally impossible to have masters at the pill condensation stage.
But 90% of them are still around foundation building. There are only a dozen or so wizards in the agile stage who are embarrassed to go on stage to compete. After all, the gap in cultivation is too big. It can be said that there is no hope at all. Rather than being knocked down and embarrassed
, these guys simply abstain from voting.
Losing once is no big deal, but coming back next time is.
Of course, the performance of these tribes is too poor, so naturally there is no magic medicine at all.
The remaining wizards use the method of drawing lots, which is more fair. In the wizardry conference, no one is allowed to cheat.
There are several disciples sent by the big tribes, and there are also some remarkable ruthless characters. Although there are no masters in the Dzogchen realm, there are a few who have reached the level of the late stage of foundation building.
These guys got a bye in the first round. As seeded players, whoever meets them in the second round will be lucky.
Lin Xuan glanced in front of him calmly. Yes, on the first day, the Alliance Grand Elder did not show up, and the Haotian Ghost Emperor was also nowhere to be seen. As long as these two old monsters were not around, there was no danger of him being exposed.
There were several venues for the competition, and huge shields were raised. Due to the lack of crystal stones in the Kuiyin Mountains, this kind of thing was not used when setting up the restrictions. Instead, several high-level wizards stood aside and poured out a steady stream of
Provide mana inside.
I saw brilliance flashing, spiritual weapons soaring into the sky, and huge explosions heard from time to time. Almost as soon as the competition started, it became very lively.
