Chapter 482 Capture the flag! Unprecedented series
Chapter 482: Capture the flag! An unprecedented series
The news of Guiqiu's return to Manhuang Mountain came so suddenly that even after receiving the news halfway, the two clan elders of Zhuang Huashan almost thought they had heard it wrong, and Nan Die, who was going to greet Mrs. Yao, also rushed in vain.
It was not until later that Zhuanghuashan and Futianshan found out that Qiongqi, who had spread rumors about coming to Futianshan for theories, actually went to Guiqiu in person! With Guiqiu's current strength, Qiongqi's visit in person was definitely a killing move.
It was a bad idea, but Qiongqi still went, just like his always unexpected style of acting, so he got Guiqiu.
But it is said that the Lord of Ghost Hill surrendered not only because of the arrival of such vicious men as Qiongqi, but also because of one thing, that is, his wife, Mrs. Yao, was assassinated on the way to Zhuanghua Mountain.
It was ashes and disappeared without a trace. This made the Lord of Ghost Hill hate Futian Mountain and Zhuanghua Mountain with all his heart. In order to take revenge, he devoted himself to Manhuang Mountain and became one of the six elders.
It is obvious that a series of events such as the disappearance of Yong He and the murder of Mrs. Yao are a conspiracy, not only against Guiqiu, but also most likely a struggle between the three major forces.
Although Manhuangshan lost Yonghe, it became the final winner of the Guiqiu War, Futianshan, and Zhuanghuashan was very suspicious of this. Similarly, Manhuangshan also hated the other two forces because of Yonghe's incident.
Many of the three major forces are intelligent people and have analyzed this matter many times.
It stands to reason that from the internal fighting between the three major forces, the Yang Mansion should benefit the most, but the Yang Mansion was the first to be excluded. Because the Yang Mansion, which has risen in the past twenty years, has formed its own fighting style, which is to use terrifying
The human sea tactic directly launches a powerful attack. There may be some changes in the attack tactics, but there has never been such a conspiracy. Moreover, the guards of Yang Mansion cannot appear here silently, let alone not alerting others.
Under such circumstances, we can eliminate Xuanxian like Yonghe.
Those remaining disciples who followed Yong He to Guiqiu were tortured to extract confessions, and the fact that Yong He had a three-strike battle with Zhang Zixing in Gui Qiu that day, and that after leaving, escaped shouting "Kunpeng". If it was really Kun Taoist who took action, Yong He was
Destruction is expected, and Futian Mountain is probably inseparable from this.
This conspiracy may have been instigated by one of the three major forces, or all three major forces may have planned it, but in the end it was Manhuangshan who seized the opportunity and reaped the benefits, so Qiongqi is the most suspected.
In the eyes of many people, there are also many doubts about Zixing, the leader of Guiqiu. Some people even boldly suggested that this conspiracy may be manipulated by Zhang Zixing of unknown origin. However, this view was quickly rejected by more people.
.Due to the special law of death in Guixu, many people who have lost their memory do not know their origins, so "unknown origins" cannot be the basis for suspicion. Even assuming that these conspiracies are related to him, then he killed Yonghe intentionally.
What was the ultimate motive behind killing his wife and giving up the Guiqiu force he was running? Many wise men believe that on the surface these events are all related to Zhang Zixing, but in fact it was the conspiracy between him and Guiqiu that led to Zhang Zixing's success.
He is "the person least likely to have planned this".
Discussions are discussions. In the process of returning to the ruins for so many years, this kind of discussion and suspicion seems to have become commonplace, and the truth of the facts often becomes a mystery and unknown. Even if the answer to the mystery is revealed, it will take a long time.
As a "newcomer", Zhang Zixing will inevitably face a lot of doubts in the Wilderness Mountain, but his abilities have also been well demonstrated in various tests. In addition to being inferior to the evaporated Zong Lao Yong He in terms of cultivation, this new Zong Lao
His plans, plans, and other aspects were all superior to those of Yonghe. No wonder Guiqiu was able to grow as big as it did in a short period of time.
What makes Qiongqi even more satisfied is that in many plans to conquer Tianshan and Zhuanghuashan, Zhang Zixing showed extraordinary cruelty and viciousness. Not only did he use clever means to annex a large number of Zhuanghuashan's loyal forces, but he also directly
Participated in the assassination plot against Jin Yi, the elder of the Futian Mountain Sect. In the end, Jin Yi died, which was regarded as revenge for Yonghe.
However, Zhang Zixing's outstanding performance also aroused the jealousy of the other sect elders in the Wilderness Mountain, especially the big sect elder Hun Chaos. Hun Chaos took a lot of credit for the Gui Qiu incident, and Zhang Zixing also voluntarily "turned over" the Gui Qiu forces, which Hun Chaos originally wanted to take control of.
Gui Qiu, but Qiongqi thought twice and handed over Gui Qiu to Zhang Zixing to take care of it.
That's fine. The main contradiction is that after Zhang Zixing joined Manhuang Mountain, the trust of the sect leader Qiong Qi in Hun Chao gradually transferred to Zhang Zixing. Although Hun Chao was angry, he did not dare to question Qiong Qi, but he was not a good person.
, and now quietly united with several sect elders who were good friends with him to suppress and exclude Zhang Zixing. Zhang Zixing did not show any weakness, and with his outstanding personal achievements, he joined forces with the sect elder Fei, who had always disliked chaos.
, gradually formed their own small group.
Qiongqi didn't care about this kind of internal struggle, and even condoned it, because this was exactly the way he used to control his subordinates. And Zhang Zixing's current situation also made Qiongqi even more relieved. A man with hatred in his heart,
People who are isolated by most people are naturally easier to control, especially Zhang Zixing's cultivation level is not very high, and the risk factor is much smaller. In comparison, Chaos, who has the upper-level cultivation level of Xuanxian
, which made Qiongqi feel threatened even more, which was also the real reason why Qiongqi didn't give Guiqiu to Hunchao in the first place.
In this way, Qiongqi's trust in Zhang Zixing continued to increase, and Zhang Zixing did not "disappoint" his trust and repaid him with actual "achievements".
The incident at Gui Qiu was like a trigger, causing the original secret struggle between the three major forces to intensify. They competed and annexed each other, with more and more casualties and more hatred. The joint proposal originally proposed by the Kun Dao people was also tacitly accepted by the three parties.
He avoided mentioning it. In a short period of time, the number of manpower lost by the three parties was several times that of the past decades. The three parties have a tendency to turn the darkness into darkness and bring the fight directly to the table.
During the struggle, Manhuang Mountain gradually stood out, and it had the potential to overwhelm Watian Mountain and Zhuanghua Mountain.
Under this situation, the Kundao people once again proposed the alliance in the name of Yang Mansion's recent destruction of Linqu Mountain and the increasingly imminent threat. This proposal was immediately responded to by Zhuang Huashan, and after thinking for a long time, Manhuang Mountain also
Finally agreed.
It is definitely not an easy task for three enemies who have hated each other for many years to negotiate at the same table, but if these three enemies are all politicians, it will obviously not be difficult.
Politics is a kind of transaction. There are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends. Only the central point of "interest" is eternal.
The reason why Manhuang Mountain agreed was that, while the three parties were fighting, Yang Mansion did not stop its expansion and continued to expand steadily. Linqu Mountain was a larger force that had been eliminated recently; secondly,
At present, the power of the Wilderness Mountain has seriously threatened the other two parties. If they insist on fighting, they will probably lead to the joint efforts of the two parties to suppress it. Although the power of the Wilderness Mountain has been hidden in either of the Futian Mountain and the Zhuanghua Mountain, it cannot
The two resistance parties join forces; thirdly and most importantly, Manhuangshan has other plans for this alliance. For Qiongqi, this alliance will be a rare opportunity to realize his ambition. In this regard
, Zhang Zixing, the elder of the sect, who has won the trust of Qiongqi, has many plans and has contributed a lot.
The mysterious strong man who once fought against Kun Dao people and Haizhi successively was not without action during this period. In order to avenge the grievances of Haezhi for taking advantage of the situation, he broke into Zhuanghua Mountain and fought hard against Haezhi and the seven elders of the sect. As a result, he was killed.
After killing one clan elder and severely injuring several others, they fought with the Haechi and left with both sides injured. After learning the first-hand information, Manhuangshan took the opportunity to launch an offensive under Zhang Zixing's plan, and occupied several areas under Zhuanghuashan's jurisdiction.
Important territory.
Futian Mountain was extremely wary of this person, and specifically strengthened the power of the Futian Formation near Jiangshan City, and activated various formations and defenses in the city, lest the incident at Zhuang Huashan happen again.
But since then, the strong man has disappeared. However, everyone believes that this person will never be willing to lie dormant. After the battle at Zhuang Huashan, he must be hiding somewhere to recuperate, or waiting for a more suitable time to launch a fatal attack on Zhuang Huashan.
This incident weakened the strength and prestige of Zhuang Huashan a lot, and the forces under its jurisdiction were even more frightened. To a certain extent, it also accelerated the growth of Manhuang Mountain in disguise.
After reaching a consensus on alliance, the three major forces began formal negotiations.
Zhang Zixing did not participate in such negotiations, but was planning other major events under Qiongqi's orders.
The negotiation table is equivalent to another battlefield. Although the battle is not bloody, the intensity is no less intense than a real battle. After deliberations, the three parties reached a consensus and elected an alliance leader to lead the three major forces and the forces of the returning forces to jointly fight against Yang Mansion.
After the Yang Mansion was eliminated, the alliance was dissolved and the situation returned to a "three-legged confrontation".
The leader of the alliance uses the Zhenwu Zaodiao Flag as a token and has the power to summon and deploy the alliance's troops and coordinate internal and external affairs of the alliance. In fact, he is the supreme leader of all the coalition forces in Guixu except Yang Mansion. The choice of this alliance leader is natural.
It became the biggest issue in the negotiations. The three major forces refused to give in to each other and reached a deadlock for a while.
In terms of overall strength and territory, Manhuang Mountain is slightly better than the other two parties; and in terms of the high-level strength of the Xuanxian level, Zhuanghua Mountain is the most organized at this stage; but from the perspective of Kun Daoren, the leader of the three major forces, Xie
Judging from the strength of the three top-level experts, Zhi and Qiongqi, the Kundao people may be slightly stronger than the other two, because in the last 500-year battle, the experts fought in batches, and Haizhi was defeated by Qiongqi.
In the final battle, Qiongqi lost to the Kun Taoist by a very small margin. Of course, the strength of the three of them was at the same level. If they really had to fight again, the outcome would still be 50-50.
Since the last battle with the mysterious strong man, Kun Taoist seemed to have some understanding. After a period of retreat, he felt that his strength had improved a little. He believed that he would have a greater chance of winning in a personal battle, so he immediately proposed that the three of them fight against each other.
The final winner is the leader. Hearing this, Haezhi was silent, while Qiongqi, who has always been brave and fierce, agreed to decide the leader of the alliance through a battle, but it was not one or two battles, but a comprehensive series.
race.
This series can fully demonstrate the strengths of the three major forces at all levels and make the most fair comparison and assessment. The winner in the end can become the recognized leader.
This series of competitions has gone against the simple competition method in the past, but adopted a rule that has never been seen before in Guixu. The competition is divided into three parts according to cultivation level, namely the True Immortal Competition, the Golden Immortal Competition and the Mysterious Immortal Competition. The True Immortal Competition
The Immortal Tournament and the Golden Immortal Tournament are divided into group battles and individual battles. Each side can have several teams. Due to the number of people, the Xuanxian Tournament only has individual battles. The three parties send people with corresponding cultivation levels to conduct round-robin matches through group draws and other methods.
.
For every victory, the corresponding party's force will gain a certain amount of points, and the loser will have no points. If it is a draw, both sides will be considered a failure. As for the three sect leaders, they are top-level powerhouses and will not participate in the Xuanxian Tournament.
At the end of the three-part competition, the highest level of one-on-one individual battles takes place. It also uses a single cycle, with a total of three battles.
After the entire competition is completed, the leader of the force with the highest points will hold the Zhenwu Zaodiao flag and be the unyielding leader, and no other force will be allowed to disobey.
Of course, competitions at different levels also have differences in the number of games and points. For example, the True Immortal Tournament has the most events, and a win is worth two points; the Golden Immortal Tournament has slightly less events, and a win is worth four points; the Xuanxian Tournament has more games.
If you win a game less, you will get six points; and the winner of the main match will get eight points.
During the competition, unless one party voluntarily admits defeat, otherwise the victory or defeat will be judged on the basis of life and death. It will inevitably be difficult to make a decision and require "arbitration". Three strong men, Chi Jian, Bi Jian, Dan Feng and some well-known solo practitioners can be specially invited to come.
, formed an arbitration committee, which is mainly responsible for the registration, grouping, judging and other tasks of the competition, and accepts the supervision of all contestants and spectators to ensure fairness and justice.
Chihuan, Bijian, and Danfeng were similar in strength to the three major sect masters and were top-level experts in Guixu. However, Su Xi stayed alone and concentrated on training, and did not establish his own power like the three major sect masters.
Qiongqi's suggestion surprised both Kun Daoren and Haechi. They didn't expect that he had such a novel idea. But when they thought about it carefully, they found that this was really a good way to decide the outcome. All three parties could be in one place.
The winner will be decided in a fair environment. If the final winner can be found, then it will be recognized as the strongest force in the true sense by the entire Guixu, which will also be quite beneficial for further realizing greater ambitions in the future.
Next, the three parties conducted corresponding discussions and negotiations on the specific rules of the series. Compared with the previous mutual exclusion and suppression, this process appeared to be very smooth.
During this period, Haezhi asked Qiongqi: "The idea of this competition is ingenious, thoughtful and admirable. I wonder how fellow Taoist Qiongqi could have such an idea?"
Qiongqi remained as usual, with his eyes closed, but a proud smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Fellow Taoist, thank you for the award, but I don't dare to take credit. This is the result of Zhang Zixing's occasional clever idea."
When Haezhi and Kun Taoist heard the name of Zhang Zixing, they all showed strange expressions. Some time ago, the new clan elder of Manhuang Mountain could be said to be "sparkling". It was precisely because of his plan that the forces of Zhuanghua Mountain and Futian Mountain were
Having suffered considerable losses one after another, Zhang Zixing can be said to have made the greatest contribution to the success of the Wilderness Mountain.
Although Zhang Zixing's actions made the two major forces hate him, they have to admit that this person is indeed an extremely rare talent. If he had realized that this person had such value earlier, he would not have let Qiong Qi attack him first.
Qiongqi said, and added casually: "Speaking of which, which of the two Taoist friends should I thank more, or should I thank both of them at the same time? If they hadn't killed Yong He, and killed Zhang Zonglao
Madam Yao, I will never harvest such talents in the Wilderness Mountain."
Haezhi and Kun Taoist both showed strange expressions. Kun Taoist sneered and said, "I'm afraid Taoist friend Qiongqi knows exactly what this matter is!"
Haechi was originally the "closest" to Zhang Zixing, but finally missed it. He felt depressed in his heart. Hearing that Qiongqi slapped him backwards, he became even more angry and said: "Justice comes naturally! Fellow Taoist Qiongqi, you have a good method!"
At present, the three major forces have reached a consensus, so this is just a small episode. What is the truth about the Guiqiu incident that day and who planned it is of little significance to the three parties, so this dispute will soon end.
Let it go.
Finally, the three parties announced to the outside world a competition called "Capture the Flag" that will begin in March. This competition is by no means comparable to previous 500-year battles. Its scale and number of participants cannot be said to be unprecedented, but it is definitely
The unprecedented and novel competition system has aroused the interest of almost everyone, and those true immortals and golden immortals who were not high in cultivation and could only be spectators in the past also have a stage to show their strength, and they are all excited.
In order to stimulate the desire to win in their disciples, the three major sect masters promised various rewards. Those with outstanding performance could become the sect elders or even the sect master's direct disciples. This further stimulated the enthusiasm of each sect member, and everyone was very enthusiastic.
Intense preparations for war.
Chi Jian, Bi Jian, and Dan Feng were personally invited by the three sect masters. After hearing about such a novel event, they became very interested. They also wanted to witness the battle between top-level experts in order to gain further insights. They all accepted the invitation and organized
A group of well-known monks were recruited and began to make corresponding preparations according to the rules provided by the three major forces.
Time flies so fast, three months have passed in the blink of an eye, and this competition that has attracted the attention of the entire Guixu is about to begin.
During this period, the three major forces did not forget to defend Yang Mansion and sent a large number of coalition forces to station at the edge of Yang Mansion's current power. If there was any change, they could immediately learn about it and block it.
According to the agreement at the time, the competition venue was set up in a neutral place outside the three major spheres of influence - the Danchen Mountains. The mountains were divided into various areas such as the competition venue and rest areas. There were also coalition forces guarding the periphery to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation to launch an attack or attack.
make trouble.
But having said that, if the competition starts, and almost all the strong men from Guixu gather here, who without foresight will come to die? Even if the mysterious strong man comes, he will definitely not be regarded as the leader of the three sect masters.
Chihuan, shoulder to shoulder, Danfeng's combined attack.
This "Capture the Flag" competition is naturally a good show planned by Zhang Zixing. Many competition systems adopt the rules of later generations, so everyone in Guixu finds it extremely novel. Of course, his purpose is not really to hold a competition to let the three major
Therefore, the forces elected the alliance leader, and they are planning the entire Guixu forces and the Zhenwu soap-carving flag.
The scale of the competition is indeed huge, and the time it takes will be correspondingly prolonged, but this is Zhang Zixing's intentional design. The longer the competition, the more time he has to prepare and "shorten" it. To be precise, this shortening
, which is equal to the end.
Zhang Zixing estimated the approximate ratio between the secret realm of Guixu and the outside time from the time Daji entered Guixu. Although not much time has passed outside Guixu, he has always kept in mind the huge dangers that may arise at any time within the thirty-three days.
, so he must strive to defeat the forces of Guixu as quickly as possible and win the Zhenwu Zaodiao Flag. Only in this way can he have enough time and energy to understand the Zhenwu Zaodiao Flag and find a way to leave Guixu.
The schedule of the Capture the Flag Competition has already been transmitted to Super Brain through the secondary body in Mokai. Tianyao is currently in Yang Mansion, so there is no need to consider safety issues. This time, Zhang Zixing can be said to have no worries and can give it a try.
.
As the three sect masters announced in unison at Danchen Mountain, the capture-the-flag competition officially began.
The opening match was the "Battle Formation" of the True Immortal Tournament, and the venue was located in an unknown and strange mountain among the Danchen Mountains.
First, Zhuanghua Mountain’s Cuoyuan Formation will face Futian Mountain’s Killing God Formation.
Although the level of the competition was not high, since it was the first battle, it still attracted a large number of spectators from the three parties, especially disciples from Futian Mountain and Zhuanghua Mountain.
The number of people in the True Immortal Fighting Formation is limited to less than thirty per side, and no more can be used. Following the "referee's" order, the two sides who listed the formations began to act quickly. The number of people in the Cuoyuan Formation was larger, and there was more inherent meaning.
It is mysterious and very different from ordinary formations. It can be attacked or defended. The Killing God Formation is murderous and has extremely strong attack power.
The two formations were like two strange beasts. After carefully confronting each other for a while, they began to charge forward. A person in front of the Cuoyuan formation suddenly transformed into a huge flat beast body, sprayed out a large amount of thick fog, and enveloped the entire Cuoyuan formation.
It looked mysterious and unpredictable. Several Taoists on the outer edge of the Killing God Formation also transformed into their true forms, and they were moving forward and rotating in circles, cutting into the misaligned element formation like saw teeth.
In the thick fog of the Cuoyuan Formation, there was a great deal of light, including fire and crystal light, mixed with various roars. The two formations slowly intertwined, and finally passed through each other. I saw broken limbs flying in the thick fog, and members of the Killing God Formation.
One-fifth was lost out of thin air, but the Cuo Yuan Formation was still shrouded in thick fog and blazing with flames. The Killing God Formation immediately changed its method, charging forward in two directions, and then reuniting at the periphery. The Cuo Yuan Formation was twisted into two halves, and again
It quickly closed back into its original shape, but the light was much weaker. Due to the similar cultivation, this kind of fighting formation relies on collective cooperation. If an individual advances too much, it will affect the overall combat effectiveness.
The people from both sides watching the battle were very excited and loudly cheered for their own side. Many of them wished they could go on the field immediately. As for the brutality of the battle, for these people, it was commonplace and they didn't care. This was the first time that the true immortals participating in the competition were so overwhelmed.
Everyone noticed, their morale was boosted, and they attacked with all their strength.
In the end, the Cuoyuan Formation was completely wiped out by the Killing God Formation, and only about half of the people in the Killing God Formation were left. Futian Mountain got its first point, and when they saw the huge "two" character displayed on the scoreboard, everyone in Futian Mountain
There were thunderous cheers. When the surviving true immortals of the Killing God Formation saw their fellow disciples, including many golden immortals, cheering and congratulating them, the satisfaction in their hearts was even more indescribable. Like victorious heroes, they finished with their heads held high.
Zhuang Huashan, who failed and accumulated zero points, seemed dejected. Some contestants were gearing up and decided to earn face for the sect in the next game. In the subsequent games, Zhuang Huashan, who worked hard, was indeed defeated in the personal battle of Zhenxian.
Defeated Savage Mountain and gained two points. The subsequent battle became more and more intense.
On the first day of the competition alone, the atmosphere was beyond imagination. Zhang Zixing, who was watching the game from a distance, couldn't help but smile mysteriously.
